Driftwood Baskets
These unique baskets are my 'signature' basket, and prove to be the most popular.
They are woven using locally-grown willow, and often incorporate other foraged materials, such as willow bark or shells - as well as the unique driftwood handle. Driftwood, or 'broc mor' in Welsh, is collected from local beaches after the winter storms.
​
These ' assymetric' baskets come in a range of sizes and can be used for many purposes - storage, foraging, shopping, kindling or decoration. Small ones are great for storing eggs in the kitchen, medium sized are useful for collecting veg from the garden, and big ones can make sturdy shoppers or be stood in the corner of a living room as tidy storage baskets.
​
I always have a couple in stock and can make to order - contact me and I can send photos of current stock, or choose one from the gallery below which I can replicate (allowing for slight variation of colour and driftwood).
They range in price from £40 to £150
​
If you would like a felted insert for your basket, made from Bardsey Island sheepswool, this is an additional £10.
