Sculptural Willow Basket with Madrona Handle
Hand-woven using traditional techniques, this extra large sculptural basket with an asymmetric border is a gorgeous companion in the home. Unique hazel wood handle.
*this is a very large basket!
Crafted from willow sustainably grown and harvested by the basketmaker, these fibers are naturally water-resistant and built to endure seasons of sun and soil. Because I weave in small, intentional batches rather than mass production, each basket remains a unique, collectible piece.
Willow varieties used include jageiollanka, acutifolia, green dicks. Madrona wood handle
