Treasures

I’m always on the look out for willow and rush baskets, chairs and other related objects that I believe should be treasured and are worthy of being in a museum.

Lately I’ve been trying to save skeined willow work, often Victorian in age.  There are now incredibly few basketmakers and chair seaters in the UK who have the knowledge of the techniques and the skills required to create willow skeins and make such beautiful work.

If you come across an object that you believe will be of interest to me, then please get in contact!
