Baskets From Cambodia
I saw Khmer baskets being sold at Japanese market.
These baskets are hand made from Lpeuk, a very tall reed in Cambodia."The reed 'la peuk' is harvested most ideally at a thickness of about 1/4", slightly green to start. After natural drying, the Cambodian 'la peuk' turns a light, clean yellowish hue- brighter than the baskets of neighboring countries, giving them a much cleaner appearance."
