Handwoven round basket. Dimensions: height with handle 35cm, Diameter 33cm. Made from natural and dyed wicker, featuring a wooden base. I dye the cane myself - in this case, natural, red, orange and brown. The basket is finished with satin varnish, which enhances the colour, and makes it easily cleaned with a damp cloth.
An ideal basket to take market shopping, carry wine and snacks to an occassion, go for a picnic in the park, carry around childrens' drinks and toys on an outing and use as a decorative item in your house. So replace those plastic buckets and bags with a sustainable reusable basket. Packed in a cardboard box.
My studio is located in Lockwood, Victoria, Australia. For most of my working life I have been a craftsman, making ceramics. Of recent times I have taken up the art of basket weaving. I draw on traditional designs & techniques and incorporate my own ideas into the work. My aim is to make sturdy, durable, unique & colourful baskets that are a pleasure to use and to look at.
