In the hands of a skilled basket maker, unassuming natural materials can take on a new life. Flexible willow and fibrous seagrass are transformed into three-dimensional pieces that demand to be used, as well as admired. Traditional and contemporary baskets are accented by woven patterns and subtle colour transitions, resulting in a soothing sense of harmony.
