Round base basket made in blackberry weave with 4 × 4 check weave base. Perfect little storage basket. It is an old design and has been stored in my studio for a while.
MATERIALS: 100% English rush. The colour of the rush will slowly mellow to a more golden tone over time. Wipe with a damp cloth to clean and leave to air-dry. As this is an organic product, ensure it is not stored in damp conditions.
DIMENSIONS: 15cm diameter, 8.5cm high
Rush weaving and basketry is an endangered craft in the UK, with very few practitioners remaining. Ella fell in love with rush the first time she worked with it and describes her creative process as a collaboration between herself and the material. As no human is the same, neither are the rush stems and Ella chooses to respect each one, working symbiotically with the plant to craft each piece.
