 Yes, I know that those chunks of wood that I chiseled off have nothing to do with the fine craftsmanship of this beautiful work of wooden art.

I just wanted to make it clear that it's handmade since it certainly looks more professional than any other hand made wooden basket I've ever seen.

I love it. It sits in our living room and has ever since our sweet friend gave it to us.

Just LOOK at the precision and beauty!

I wish my photography could show you how talented his son is.

Beautifully crafted, this is different to the normal wooden basket.

your wish is granted .. !! .. as your photography has most definitely shown how talented the person who created this is ..

wonderful to see there are still craftsmen around who can create, so many of our young folk have no idea about craftsmanship 8
