Straw Basket Small
Straw Basket Small
Beautiful basket hand woven with rye straw. Perfect for storing fruits or display your various treasures - shells, stones found on a beach or necklaces.. What do you think?
It's made using an old, traditional technique called coiling. Coiled straw work is a basketry technique where rye or wheat straw is made into coils and then bound into shape with strips of bramble, cane or string. Coiled straw was used for a wide range of baskets, bowls and bee skeps.
Coiling technique is not that popular anymore. Sadly, it’s becoming forgotten. Folka loves it, I hope you too. Let’s revive this beautiful, sustainable craft together!
Measurements: 30 cm in diameter, 28 cm height (including a handle)
Hand crafted by artist Mikołaj from sustainable, freshly harvested rye straw in Poland.
