Prim Media 1676 External ID LAPONTE_AR_32 Place The town or city Museo de la madera de Caso, Asturias Material Hazel woood Material Source Local 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. Tool Basketmaker’s tools include a knife and a drawknife. A fundamental element is the so-called basketmaker’s bench, which is the tool on which the basketmaker works and shapes the wooden strips.
