White Willow, for which work?
Prized for its light colour, these willow rods, offered in various lengths (80 to 200 cm), are the material of artisanal basketry. They are chosen to make baskets and trays, to build or restore armchairs, and for creative hobbies such as personalised decorative projects.
Working willow
Willow is worked after soaking, which restores the flexibility needed for weaving without breaking. Woven damp, it shrinks slightly as it dries for a tight piece. Store the bundles dry, away from moisture.
A European willow, sourced since 1850
Harvested during the dormant season then dried and sorted, our willow comes from European regions dedicated to basketry, in keeping with Maison Douineau’s expertise since 1850. For your creations, explore the Vannerie DIY universe and Our advice.
