Vinea willow harvest basket for the garden with handle TheWickerStories

Classic wicker basket with an elongated, oval line and low sides makes it easy to arrange harvests in a single layer. The arched, sturdy handle is comfortable in the hand, and the dense, even weave provides a stable base. Edges are neatly finished, and the natural wicker hue complements the colors of vegetables and fruits. The low profile makes access between beds easier.

This is handcrafted from European wicker, free of plastic and 100% biodegradable. The basket is made in the EU from natural wicker following Polish weaving traditions inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. The durable weave stands up to daily use, while the lightweight construction doesn’t strain the wrist.

It’s ideal for harvesting in the garden and orchard: tomatoes, berries, apples, lettuce or herbs. The flat shape minimizes pressure on delicate fruit, and the breathable weave lets them breathe. The comfortable handle makes it easy to carry between beds, and the low rim encourages quick placing of picked vegetables and fruits without crushing them. Also perfect for mushrooms.

Outside the garden it works as a natural decoration for the home or balcony. Display seasonal produce, dried plant arrangements, or use it as a liner for herbs and small plants — simply add foil or an insert to protect the wicker from moisture. It can also sit in the kitchen as a handy basket for garden vegetables, ready to wash and prepare. Unlike common materials such as rattan, reed, bulrush, straw, water hyacinth or bamboo, our products are made from authentic Polish wicker — natural, durable and prized for exceptional quality and timeless character.

Choose this hand‑woven wicker basket – it will simplify harvesting, beautifully display your produce and serve you for years.
