Handmade Scottish Willow Harvest Basket – SWW Label
Harvest basket for gathering veg in your garden or allotment, or just carrying your bits and bobs around. It is strong, very light, and also versatile. It can be used for all sorts of things.
This is the same as the Harvest Basket in gold and green, but woven entirely with organically grown Scottish willow from maker Anna Liebmann’s patch in Lanarkshire or Edinburgh. It has a strong handle which the sides are actually woven into.
Made with a traditional underfoot base (you hold it in place with your feet whilst weaving), which is super strong.
Anna says, ‘Usually, I will use ‘Carl Jensen’ or ‘Dicky Meadows’ for the side stakes and waling, and ‘Bleu’ for the main weaving on the sides. Carl Jensen and Dicky Meadows are both a greenish colour, whilst the Bleu usually has a good blue tone – but it depends on the year! So the basket will most likely be greeny blue.
Made using entirely organically grown Scottish willow from Anna’s patch in Lanarkshire, carries the Scottish Working Woods label.
As item is made to order, it takes approximately 16 weeks to fulfil. 46 x 33cm (18″ x 13″), 25cm with handles (10″)
