Fique is a cellulose fiber commonly known as cabuya. It is a sustainable fiber because it requires little water and no pesticides to grow and harvest.

Care Instructions

For the best lifetime of fique baskets is to keep them dry and indoors. Avoid submerging in water. If used as a planter, I recommend using it as a cache basket, and not as the direct container of soil & water.

If using outdoors, I would recommend in a covered porch/roofed area. Excessive direct exposure to sun could cause natural wear/discoloration over time, but it would take a really long time for that to happen!
