Safety first…
All our baskets and cribs are created with safety in mind. They have been weight tested and they are in conformity with the EU safety guidelines for baby cribs.
1. How long can we use the bed?
– for the smaller cribs like Smile, Twist ‘n shout, Honeycomb and Penny Lane we recommend that the bed is used until the baby can stand up.
– for our big children bed “Big Bang” – your child can grow in it for as long as you think he is comfortable.
2. Can we carry our baby in the seagrass changing basket?
No, this basket is designed for changing purposes only. Use it to change your baby on the couch, on another table, on the floor, wherever you like, but do not transport your baby inside it – it is not meant for carrying.
3. Do you use any chemicals or harmful substances in making your products?
No! Our rattan and bamboo beds and seagrass changing baskets are made only with natural materials, hence their charm. The rattan is coated with a water lacquer that has been tested and complies with the safety rules (the lacquer is provided by Propan Raya – one of the leading producers in SE Asia) . The water lacquer helps the product maintain it’s natural beauty without covering its appearance. This coating is the best method there is for the rattan to remain close to nature.
4. How can you assure the quality of the products?
Part of our time has been living in Vietnam for many years. They work closely with the manufacturers. Every product goes through a rigorous check before it can start its journey towards your home. Yes, every product is checked, but remember rattan is a special type of material and uniformity is not a priority, because we think that every handmade product is special and that’s what we like about it.
Manufacturers Vietnam
1. Where are the beds made?
The beds are made in Vietnam, a tropical country that blooms with bamboo, rattan and seagrass. These materials grow wild here and local people, using traditional harvesting methods, collect them and sell them to manufacturers.
2. How are they made?
HANDMADE – The special flexibility of rattan is crafted by hand or by using special wooden tools in order to give it its desired shape. Firstly, the artisans moisten the rattan with water vapor, and then they mold it in the desired shape – usually around a round pre-designed piece of wood or metal or inside a molded shape tightly tying the rattan with its own skin to keep it together until it dries.
3. Why are our products eco-friendly?
All the materials used are outsourced in a sustainable way. The rattan, bamboo and seagrass are materials that grow fast, that need other plants to grow and can be manufactured in their most natural forms. We do not destroy or damage any ecosystem in the process of collecting the material we need.
Also, we are strongly against the use of plastic. I want to give as an example our seagrass basket. The seagrass is usually tied with small pieces of plastic (have a look at most similar products). However, looking at different methods with our weavers in order to find a resistant and eco-alternative, we discovered that rattan skin is the perfect replacement for plastic. Hurray!
