This basket is made from pine wood.
Pine is a coniferous tree commonly found in Europe and North America, known for its ease of working.
It has long been used for furniture, as well as for structural elements such as posts, beams, and flooring.

For this basket, pine sourced in Estonia is used.
According to the maker, pine that has grown for around 100 to 120 years is particularly well suited for basket making.

Here, we introduce two sizes, S and M, of a basket made from this pine, known as the “Round One-Handle Basket.”

At home, the S size works well for organizing items around a desk or computer, as well as for storing dried foods or snacks.
The M size can be used as a magazine rack or for keeping toys neatly gathered. Both sizes also seem well suited for holding cleaning supplies,
with room for items such as spray bottles.

Please take a look at the short video to see the texture and feel of the S and M sizes.

Easy to carry and simple to use both indoors and outdoors, this is a one-handle basket made for everyday life.
Please check the size details carefully and choose the size that suits you best.

— Pine Basketry from Avinurme Village, Estonia —

In Avinurme, a village located in eastern Estonia near Lake Peipus—the largest lake in the country, close to the Russian border—
baskets have been made from pine (plants of the pine family) for more than 200 years.

In this village, there is a family-run workshop that has been making baskets for over 25 years, using pine harvested in Estonia.
The baskets made there are remarkably simple, woven from wide strips of wood, allowing the natural character of pine to be fully appreciated.
Twisted handles made from birch wood are also used, giving the baskets a distinctive look and color palette typical of Northern Europe.

This workshop works with as many as twenty makers.
In order to maintain consistent quality and provide feedback to the makers, baskets made by those outside the family are marked with initials on the base.

Designed in response to everyday life and to customers’ requests, their baskets are widely appreciated not only throughout Estonia but also in other regions,
valued for their simple design and practical nature.

With such a wide range of styles and sizes, you may well find a shape or size that feels just right for you.
