Nantucket Style Walking Basket 2024, 2024
Traditional Nantucket style basket made with Maple and Walnut staves. A Walnut base and rim. Woven with natural cane on a sanded pine stick. 5'4" Tall Basket is 10"x 10" with 9.5" Depth
I wanted to create something that was a mix. Just like I am and how most of us are. I wanted to create something intriguing and modern. Walking gathering baskets have been used since pre-Hispanic times to traverse the mountains and collect berries and other small items. Nantucket baskets are one of Americas only traditional art styles. By mixing these styles together I feel I have created something that us mixed races and cultures can be proud of.
