Moa Baskets

Moa baskets are handmade by Marcel Basau and Eva Marquerre. The team uses a techinique in which elastic yarn is woven on a wooden stretcher and covered in resin, then the stretcher is pressed down over a form and secured until dry. Voila, a basket is born.

    pretty! I want some to match up with the Hive vases from West Elm you posted earlier. I haven’t been able to get them off my mind all morning!
