The French market basket, or panier, is a true summer icon and a forever French essential.
The original baskets were created in rural France and typically handcrafted by local artisans using natural materials like straw and raffia to create durable, utilitarian baskets that were practical for carrying produce, grains and other sundries from the local market. They went from utilitarian to fashion accessory in the 50s and 60s when women like Brigitte Bardot and Jane Birkin started being photographed with these baskets. Their style paired with the effortless elegance of these bags made them an absolute classic.
