Carry Your Culture, Your Way
India, 4th February, 2026: Basil, a contemporary lifestyle brand known for its bold design sensibility and functional approach to everyday essentials, announces the launch of Bento Quad+ (Mitti Range) a thoughtfully designed lunch box that brings Indian artistic inspiration into modern, everyday living.
At the heart of Basil’s India Collection lies a simple truth: culture doesn’t need to be loud, explained, or performed to matter. Through subtle regional cues and intentional design, the collection reflects India as it is lived today layered, fluid, and deeply personal. Not decorative. Not frozen in time. Just seamlessly woven into daily life.
Bento Quad+ draws inspiration from India’s rich cultural landscape through five distinctive prints Bengal Bagh, Himachali Guldaan, Tanjore Kolam, Desi Mitti, and Jaipuri Jaali. Each design captures the essence of its region, reinterpreted through Basil’s playful yet refined aesthetic, allowing culture to move with you something to live with, not display on occasion
For children, the product fosters a quiet sense of belonging, becoming part of their everyday rhythm. For parents, it offers a natural way to carry culture forward — not by insisting, but by including it in daily moments. This is a culture that adapts, evolves, and makes space for who you are today.
Beyond its design narrative, Bento Quad+ is built for functionality and convenience. It features a 100% stainless steel tray for enhanced durability and hygiene, a fully leak-resistant structure for easy carrying, and a four-compartment configuration, including a separate inner container to keep meals organised while preserving flavours. With an 800 ml capacity, it is ideal for school lunches as well as long workdays.
Commenting on the launch, Harini Rajagopalan, CEO & Co-Founder, Basil, said, “Bento Quad+ reflects our belief that everyday essentials should feel intentional and personal. Indian culture carries incredible stories, and bringing those narratives into a product used daily was important to us. It’s about making mealtimes meaningful without adding complexity.”
Adding to this, Mahesh Muraleedharan, COO & Co-Founder, Basil, said, “Functionality is at the core of everything we design. With Bento Quad+, we focused on durability, smart compartmentalisation, and ease of use, while ensuring the product remains true to Basil’s bold and contemporary identity.”
