Our Eco-Friendly Christmas Gifts - Copper Christmas Baskets
You’ve heard of Easter egg baskets before but we know that you’re going to love these sparkling, copper Christmas baskets which have been lovingly handcrafted just in time for your festive celebrations
The inspiration behind our eco-friendly Christmas gifts...
Beautiful baskets shouldn’t just be limited to one celebration each year and so we were inspired to design and create the most beautiful collection of copper baskets that can be used at Christmas time or any other celebration during the year. The sparkling and shimmering properties of copper always make us think of Christmas as it is so alike to the beautiful fairy lights that you find hanging from pine trees and pretty houses during December.
It was for this reason that we decided to use recycled copper to create our baskets rather than another type of sustainable material. This unique basket weave is completely different to our other copper creations and has been designed to hold as much volume as possible while still being durable and beautiful.

Our eco-friendly Christmas gifts - The story behind the art...
The idea to create copper Christmas baskets came to us not long after we launched our sustainable Easter collection. We’re always on the lookout for beautiful ways we can display festive grazing tables and pass around Christmas treats and so creating these gorgeous little baskets was our solution to this problem.
On top of their aesthetic appearance, we also designed them to be durable, lightweight and easy to clean so that they’re a joy to use for any occasion. We also knew that we wanted our sustainable and ethical Christmas collection to stand out from our other array of products so created an entirely new basket design to keep our tradition of individuality going.

Wondering how our eco-friendly Christmas gifts are created?
Because we utilise 100% recycled materials for our entire copper homewares collection, the first step of the creation process is to strip all the recycled wire to reveal the sparkling copper underneath, untwist and straighten each strand of wire and then prepare it to be re-twisted into our Christmas baskets. We used a new and unique basket weave for this design which ensures durability and strength while maintaining that shining elegance that copper is known for. Each basket is carefully handcrafted over an average duration of 3 hours and during the creation process, we ensure that no waste materials are created, meaning that each little strand of copper wire is used and nothing is sent to landfill.
Eco-friendly shipping & packaging - From Sophia. to you...
Once we’ve received your order for one or more of these sparkling Christmas baskets, we carefully package them in recycled materials (we usually use newspaper so that we can keep it out of landfill or recycling centres for another loop of the cycle and because it protects our copper pieces beautifully)
The baskets then get placed inside a cardboard box which has also been made from recycled materials and we include a special invitation to join the Sisterhood of Sustainability – our very own and beautiful community of women who are passionate about sustainable and ethical living and want to support you! Sendle (Australia’s first carbon neutral shipping company) then pick up your order from our Brisbane workshop and deliver it directly to your door while simultaneously offsetting carbon emissions through their partnership with South Pole Group.
We then also remove 100 pieces of rubbish from the environment on your behalf and plant one native tree for Australian wildlife for every shipment of products. With each purchase from Sophia. please know that the profits are helping to make a real and positive difference the environment and community.
