Carry on the tradition and take home a beautiful, durable and useful basket crafted from local and responsibly harvested, hand pounded black ash logs.

This is a great introduction to the extraordinary qualities of the black ash tree. Weave a square to round basket, approximately 6"x6" with optional leather strap. Included is a discussion on how the material is harvested and processed. Ages 14 and up.
