Buka – Handwoven Bread Basket

Made for the bread we share

The Buka Handwoven Bread Basket brings one of the simplest and most meaningful traditions of Albanian hospitality to the table: sharing bread.

Crafted in Albania from 100% cotton and woven using traditional wooden looms, Buka combines functionality with the distinctive character of Albanian textile craftsmanship.

Its reversible design allows it to be used on either side, while its soft structure can be folded and shaped naturally around bread, rolls, breadsticks or small baked goods.

Subtle variations in the weave and detailing are a natural part of the artisanal process, making every Buka basket beautifully unique.

Pair it with the Zadrima Tablecloth and Napkins to create a complete table inspired by Albanian craftsmanship and hospitality.

Made in Albania, with heart.

The Story Behind Buka

In Albanian, “buka” means “bread.”

But bread is rarely just food. Around the Albanian table, it is part of welcoming someone into your home, sharing what you have and sitting together.

Buka was created around that simple ritual.

Handwoven in Albania and designed to sit at the centre of the table, it transforms an everyday essential into a small expression of craftsmanship and hospitality.
