“Zogata” basket S, M, L, XL / Spruce / POL 340206 ポーランド/松の根 Zogata S・M・L・XL 4サイズ


							

This basket was made by Zogata and his apprentice in southern Poland.

This basket is made from the roots of a tree called “Spruce” that grows in Europe.
Originally, larger sizes of these Zogata baskets were made for mushroom picking, blueberry gathering, and potato harvesting and storage.

These are miniature versions of those harvest baskets, all about the size of a hand.

In Poland, they dig up soil from the roots that can be seen on the surface of the ground and collect materials that can be used to make baskets.

In Japan, bamboo, grass, vines and tree bark are abundant materials for making baskets, so you rarely hear of baskets being made using plant roots.

However, in Poland, which is a much colder country with a much higher latitude than Japan, these roots are also a valuable material.

いBecause they are “roots”, they are not straight like bamboo, but have many bends and twists. The roots are washed, sorted, and stripped, and then prepared for weaving baskets.

The baskets made in this way are truly a blessing from the forest, and while it may be a little exaggerated, you could say they are a “crystal” formed by the fusion of people and nature.

Mr. Zogata is the creator of this basket, which is made in Śląsk Village.

Zogata is made only by Zogata and his apprentice.

On this page, we introduce four sizes: S, M, L, and XL.

Use it as a cutlery stand at the dining table or in the kitchen.
Pencils and pens can be placed around the desk, and the large size can also hold a calculator.

Putting a glass or vase inside the basket would be a good way to display plants and flowers.
Or as a small planter container.

Baskets were a necessity for the farmers in the village where the maker, Zogata, lives.
For harvesting mushrooms, blueberries and potatoes, they were also used to store potatoes, rice husks, and sawdust.
They were also often used for shopping.

Instead of buying products, people living in mountain villages,
They have honed their basket weaving skills and passed these skills on to the next generation.

Harvest baskets of a much larger type than these are rarely made nowadays.
But we hope you will enjoy these miniature baskets.

Please choose the size you prefer.
