All of my hand made oval shopping baskets are completely original. These baskets have 2 rows of natural hemp rope detailing, finished on the inside using the traditional method of whipping with polished flax cord, this gives the rope ends a naturally neat , clean finish I use a minimum of 3 different types of top quality English willow from Somerset. Each finished product is unique given the natural variation in the willow. I use three different weaving patterns to give the the baskets texture resulting in a rustic but contemporary finish. Each basket has a three colour combination of deep brown, green and buff. The handle is made from a thick willow branch bent into shape whilst green then dried and wrapped in smooth easy to hold stripped willow.
