This contemporary basket border was designed in 1997 by Stanislaw Dziubak, since i saw this border i fell in love with it and have been experimenting with different forms ever since. I recently began playing around with curvaceous forms to give a bulbous appearance and to create more volume to the basket and also upscaling my work to create these statement pieces. I love how the colours of the willow pass diagonally across the surface of the basket to give a painterly finish.
The willow is grown organically here in King’s Cliffe by my husband Kirk. This basket contains Dark Dicks, Packing Twine, Green Dicks, Brittany Blue and Harrisons willows and has a green handle.
Originally designed as a non-functional basket, some customers who buy these baskets do find a use for them.
