Description

This beautifully illustrated volume presents baskets woven from natural fibers over a long period of time and from diverse American, European and International cultures.

Specialized baskets for work places, as architectural elements and for domestic and farm chores are shown in over 400 black and white and 31 color pictures.

The text explores the origins of the plants which produce weavable fibres, localized preparation techniques, and a wide variety of weaving styles and forms.

The extensive picture captions identify the use, origin, material and size of each basket and reflect the cultural styles.

Detailed drawings of many weaves will enable craftsmen today to duplicate and experiment with a variety of materials and patterns.
