A wicker basket makes an excellent decorative addition to your home or cottage. Not merely for "looks" either, these baskets have many practical uses too. No home is complete minus the unique blend of practicality and charm that may only be offered by wicker baskets.

Wicker baskets have history! Going back to thousands of years BC, these baskets were woven from pliable and fibrous plant materials such as oak, ash, willow, cane and reed. Typically whether solid or reed woven base was laid down first, then, the vertical staves were added being a support frame. The circumference, or sides, with the basket were then woven within an over-under pattern to complete the basket. Different weave placements or materials might be used to create different patterns or finishes. A lid or handle could then be added in if desired.
