Round One-Handle Basket / Pine / EST 330717 エストニア/パイン 丸バスケット ワンハンドル S・M 2サイズ
This basket is made from pine wood. Pine is a coniferous tree commonly found in Europe and North America, known for its ease of working. It has long been used for furniture, as well as for structural elements such as posts, beams, and flooring.
For this basket, pine sourced in Estonia is used. According to the maker, pine that has grown for around 100 to 120 years is particularly well suited for basket making.
Here, we introduce two sizes, S and M, of a basket made from this pine, known as the “Round One-Handle Basket.”
Both sizes are made in almost the same way. Wide strips of thinly sliced pine are woven in a regular pattern, alternating vertically and horizontally. This shows a close-up of the weaving on the side without the handle.It has a strong presence, as if the wood itself were woven directly. Yet when touched, the surface feels smooth and gentle.This shows the rim viewed from the outside, where it is boldly bent to form the edge.This view shows the inside. The rim looks almost the same as on the outside.This view looks down at the rim from above. When the rim is folded, a very small flat surface—about 1 cm—is first created before it is turned back. By doing so, the thin strips can be woven without splitting.Because the wood is bent firmly to about 90°, there may be slight fuzzing in some areas, but it is not noticeable to a degree that causes concern. This is not a defect, and we appreciate your understanding.The handle is attached in this way. It is made by twisting the fibers of birch wood.The handle is finished by being wrapped around the first row of strips.Made from firm fibers, the handle forms a clean, graceful arch. It combines both elasticity and strength.This is a view from above. The base is square, while the opening forms a rounded shape. This is the M size.This shows the outside of the base. It is finished in a clean checkered pattern.This shows one of the outer corners. It has been carefully folded and woven. The maker’s signature or initials can be seen here. Strips of roughly the same width are woven in both the vertical and horizontal directions. There may be marks that look like light scuffs running against the grain, but these are not defects.This is the S size.Within the overall product lineup from Estonia, the S size is considered on the smaller side.It is a size that is easy to handle and use in everyday home settings.It is small enough to sit lightly on your lap.A wallet, a pouch, a mobile phone, and a handkerchief.It is also well suited for going out with just the essentials.Light and well balanced, it stays comfortable to carry throughout the day.This is the M size.It is a size that is not too large for an adult to carry and feels just right to hold on one’s own.It is about the size that fits neatly across an adult’s legs.This basket is a size that would work well for shopping or as a storage basket.For shopping trips to a nearby supermarket or market.
At home, the S size works well for organizing items around a desk or computer, as well as for storing dried foods or snacks. The M size can be used as a magazine rack or for keeping toys neatly gathered. Both sizes also seem well suited for holding cleaning supplies, with room for items such as spray bottles.
Please take a look at the short video to see the texture and feel of the S and M sizes.
Easy to carry and simple to use both indoors and outdoors, this is a one-handle basket made for everyday life. Please check the size details carefully and choose the size that suits you best.
— Pine Basketry from Avinurme Village, Estonia —
In Avinurme, a village located in eastern Estonia near Lake Peipus—the largest lake in the country, close to the Russian border— baskets have been made from pine (plants of the pine family) for more than 200 years.
In this village, there is a family-run workshop that has been making baskets for over 25 years, using pine harvested in Estonia. The baskets made there are remarkably simple, woven from wide strips of wood, allowing the natural character of pine to be fully appreciated. Twisted handles made from birch wood are also used, giving the baskets a distinctive look and color palette typical of Northern Europe.
This workshop works with as many as twenty makers. In order to maintain consistent quality and provide feedback to the makers, baskets made by those outside the family are marked with initials on the base.
Designed in response to everyday life and to customers’ requests, their baskets are widely appreciated not only throughout Estonia but also in other regions, valued for their simple design and practical nature.
With such a wide range of styles and sizes, you may well find a shape or size that feels just right for you.
