<dc:title>Handled baskets</dc:title>
<dc:description>Single-handled baskets woven in a chequered technique using hazel strips. They have rectangular bases, straight sides, and oval openings. The rim is finished with a split rod that secures the trimmed ends of the warp, and is fixed with a strip sewn in a spiral. Some of the strips feature pyrographed decoration. They have central handles, two of which are decorated with pyrography.</dc:description>

<item_type_metadata:technique>Thick rods of hazel and chestnut are used; these must be boiled and split with a knife to obtain strips of wood. The strips are then smoothed with a drawknife, holding them in place with the help of a workbench or a board. The strips are woven together by hand and tightened by striking them with a mallet and a wooden batten in order to produce a weave without gaps. The process ends by closing the basket at the top with a rim, which is secured with wooden rings.</item_type_metadata:technique>
