FAQs
What material is the Dexam Sintra Bread Basket made from?
The bread basket is crafted from 100% recycled cotton.
How do I fold the bread basket for storage?
To fold, simply loosen the corner ties and collapse the sides inward, then tie the corners together to secure its flat form.
Can I put hot bread directly into the basket?
While the basket is designed for serving, it is recommended to use a liner or a plate for very hot items to protect the fabric and ensure cleanliness.
Is the bread basket suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the bread basket is designed for both indoor and outdoor use.
How should I clean the bread basket?
Wipe the bread basket with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals.
What are the dimensions of the basket when open?
The product description does not specify exact dimensions, but it is a foldable square basket designed for serving rolls or bread.
What inspired the design?
The design draws inspiration from the architecture and landscapes of Sintra, Portugal, part of a Mediterranean-style collection.
Troubleshooting
Basket does not stand upright
Ensure the internal supports are correctly positioned and the corner ties are not overly tightened, allowing the sides to expand fully.
Basket is slightly creased after folding
Gently reshape the basket by hand. Minor creases will naturally diminish with use.
Fabric appears to be absorbing moisture
Use a liner or a small plate for items that might release moisture. Wipe spills immediately with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
