Chip basket braided according to traditional craft methods from hand-crafted pine shavings. A further development of the sieves and sweep baskets of hand-cut shavings that were made in earlier times. The baskets are still made today in the same traditional way with hand-crafted and sanded “bars” as they are called. A versatile basket to use on the excursion, picking berries and mushrooms or to store your handiwork. A genuine craft from Mora where the tradition of basket making still stretches back to the 18th century.
This basket is diagonally braided, with a square bottom and rounded sides. The handles are made of shavings and the edge of the basket is nailed with nubb as was customary on baskets from Dalarna.
In chip baskets, all chips have the same thickness and flexibility, unlike most other braiding methods where the braiding material is softer and thinner than the material they are braided into. Traditionally, the shavings were split with an axe and knife. From the end of the 18th century, planed shavings also became common, especially in southern Sweden. The most common types of chip baskets are diagonally braided and straight braided. There has also been a variant with scissor braiding or cypress braiding.
