With long vegetal sticks, particularly
from the willow tree, Mexican artisans craft baskets of many
forms and styles to create beautiful, functional and durable
objects. If there was ever an example of using everything Nature
provides, this is it. |

Baskets from the States of Mexico,
Guerrero, Michoacan, San Luis Potosi, Oaxaca, and Yucatan are
traditionally made to gather fruit, bring bread from market and
for household storage. We use them at home to keep dried flowers,
current magazines, kindling by the fireplace and to hunt for
eggs at Easter after a visit from the bunny. |

These baskets are another item
where the crafts are made by individuals, their construction
is a true art. We like to sell these items as it assists to maintain
a lifestyle that no factory shop can offer and their construction
is very consistent with the environment. Whether it be a bulk
order for bread baskets for your restaurant or individual creative
designs or many of the 'common' baskets, E-mail us. |
