Ancient craft of basket weaving
By tradition
More and more of the traditional wickerwork is disappearing from the scene today.
Globalization and mass production, e.g. from plastic, have spared the last few basket-making companies in Europe.
But for how much longer?
We believe that the craft of weaving with united effort has a potential for our future.
The basic culture of humanity
Basket weaving is one of the oldest crafts in history and is now part of Germany’s intangible cultural heritage. Since the dawn of human civilization, hands have weaved materials together to create sturdy structures and useful objects for everyday use.
The braiding technique has been handed down over generations, has been further developed and is now scientifically a cultural asset that is absolutely worthy of protection.
Tried-and-tested practices revived
The designs and applications of willow weaving have changed, but the braided accessories remain up-to-date.
The functional and decorative elements made of willow still impress today with their play of colors and shape.
Preserve the tradition
In order to preserve the future of the old natural handicraft, it is all the more important to cultivate the culture of weaving and to promote the diversity of weaving.
Today in the XXI century, monpanier is fully inspired by the current era. This is how your favorite basket becomes a long-term feel-good object that appeals to your emotions and conveys closeness to nature and security…
