The Olympia Round Wicker Basket is designed for catering professionals and hosts looking to enhance their food presentation, particularly for breakfast buffets, pastry displays, or fruit service. This basket excels at bringing a rustic, peaceful aesthetic to any table setting while keeping food items neatly organized and accessible.

FAQs
Can I put this basket in the dishwasher?
No. The wicker material will be damaged by high heat and moisture in a dishwasher. Clean only with a damp cloth.
Is the basket food safe?
Yes, it is designed for food display. However, we recommend using the included liner or a food-safe paper napkin as a barrier between the food and the wicker.
What are the exact dimensions?
The basket has a height of 90mm and a diameter of 230mm.
Can I wash the liner in the laundry?
Yes, provided the material is fabric-based. Check the specific care tag on the liner for temperature recommendations.
Is this suitable for outdoor catering?
It can be used outdoors in dry conditions, but avoid leaving it in rain or damp environments to prevent mold.
Troubleshooting
Liner has become stained or dirty
Remove the liner and wash it according to the care label. For persistent stains, replace with a clean food-safe cloth or paper liner.
Wicker shows signs of dust or buildup
Use a soft-bristled brush or a vacuum with a brush attachment to gently dislodge dust from the weave.
The basket feels damp or smells musty
Place the basket in a well-ventilated, dry area immediately. Do not use for food service until it is completely dried out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the basket is straightforward: simply ensure the removable liner is correctly seated within the base of the basket before use.
Care Instructions:
- Daily Maintenance: Shake out the liner frequently to remove crumbs. If the liner becomes soiled, it should be laundered according to fabric care instructions.
- Cleaning the Wicker: Use a dry soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe down the exterior of the basket. Avoid submerging the basket in water, as this can weaken the natural materials and lead to warping or mold growth.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Do not stack heavy items on top of the baskets to prevent crushing the woven structure.
