A wide-width basketry staple, this 1" flat reed is well-suited for basket makers working on larger forms and sturdy constructions.

Cut from the inner core of the rattan vine, each one-pound coil yields approximately 70 feet of reed — a practical supply for substantial weaving projects or restocking your basket making materials.

  • Natural rattan construction:
    Made from the core of the rattan vine, this reed is strong and flexible, holding its shape well as it dries — a reliable choice for structured, durable basket forms.

  • Wide 1" flat profile:
    Flat on both sides, this wider reed covers more surface area with each pass, making it a natural fit for basket bases, bold weave patterns, and statement pieces where a substantial look is desired.

  • Varies in thickness:
    As a natural material, this reed has some variation in thickness from piece to piece — a characteristic of rattan that gives handwoven baskets their authentic, handcrafted quality.

  • Ready to soak and weave:
    Soak in water before use to soften and make the reed pliable — it becomes easy to work with and shape without splitting or cracking.

  • Accepts stain and dye:
    Takes color well, giving you the freedom to personalize your finished baskets to suit any style.

Whether you're weaving a sturdy storage basket or a bold decorative piece, this 1" flat reed is a dependable, hardworking addition to your basketry supplies.

1" Flat Reed — 1 pound coil.
Approximately 70 feet per pound.
