Enjoy the rustic elegance of Maine's wilderness with our hand crafted Birch Bark Basket – a functional work of art that brings the essence of the great outdoors into your home. Experience the timeless beauty and craftsmanship that can only come from the heart of Maine. Materials: To ensure sustainable practices, we only harvest birch bark from already dead birch trees in areas where birches are abundant. The natural variations in the bark's texture and color ensure that each basket is a unique piece of functional art. The sturdy base is woven with vegan sinew and many baskets include a red dogwood trim, creating a durable and timeless piece that reflects the spirit of the Maine woods. Please note when you order if the red trim is something you specifically would or would not like. Design: This basket showcases the perfect marriage of form and function. Its medium size is not only visually appealing but functional ensuring a product that not only serves a purpose but also stands as a work of art on its own. Versatility: Whether you use it as a decorative centerpiece, a storage solution for your home, or a charming gift basket for a special occasion, our handmade Birch Bark Basket is a versatile addition to any space. *Please note that each basket is handcrafted from natural materials making each basket unique. There will be differences in the basket you receive from the photos, however, the dimensions and general birch bark colors will remain the same.
