Designed by
Ilia Eckardt for
Tribu, the vintage-inspired
Gobi basket is the result of an innovative artisanal crochet technique developed by the designer, based on a traditional knitting stitch that she reinterprets on a large scale. The result is a sculptural piece with strong visual impact, a true showcase of artisanal craftsmanship. Handwoven from recycled yarn,
Gobi combines an eco-friendly approach with a generous, organic aesthetic. Its rounded forms and knitted texture—scaled up and reinvented—give it a warm presence that instantly evokes nature while embodying a resolutely contemporary style. Available in several sizes,
Gobi works equally well as decorative storage or as a sculptural piece in its own right, whether in an outdoor living space or indoors. It is an object that embodies the philosophy of
Tribu: a contemporary take on traditional craftsmanship, driven by a genuine appreciation for the handmade.
