    Baskets are traditionally made from plant fibers that are woven by hand, though other materials like metal can also be used. Baskets serve both practical storage and transport functions as well as aesthetic purposes, and some baskets are used for ceremonial or religious purposes. Square plating is a simple weaving technique that results in an open design using stiff materials, and is often used for basket bases or walls. Open strapping baskets made of woven plastic strapping have handles and are versatile for tasks like laundry.

    Context: Storage

    A basket is a container that is traditionally constructed from


    stiff fibres and can be made from a range of materials, including
    wood splints, runners, and cane. While most baskets are made
    from plant materials, other materials such as horsehair, baleen,
    or metal wire can be used. Baskets are generally woven by
    hand. Some baskets are fitted with a lid, while others are left
    open on top.
    Baskets serve utilitarian as well as aesthetic purposes. Some
    baskets are ceremonial, that is religious, in nature. While
    baskets are usually used for harvesting, storage and transport,
    specialized baskets are used as sieves for a variety of purposes,
    including cooking, processing seeds or grains, tossing gambling
    pieces, rattles, fans, fish traps, and laundry.
    Strapping, also known as bundling and banding, is the process
    of applying a strap to an item to combine, stabilize, hold,
    reinforce, or fasten it. The strap may also be referred to
    as strapping. Strapping is most commonly used in the packaging
    industry.
    Square plating
    Type of simple plating with balanced horizontal and vertical elements. Often results in
    open work because of stiffness of the material. Often used for the base or walls of the
    basket. Variations formed by changing the width of the horizontal or vertical
    components.
