Buff willow is boiled with the bark on and then stripped, leaving an even golden brown. The hinged lid straps down on a buckle. Seven sizes run by length in inches, unlined or with a removable cotton lining in black, red, white, grey sage or navy blue.
Trim changes with size: faux leather on the two smallest, dark brown leather above, and metal chains on three of the middle lids. The smallest pair suit a bottle and a few treats, the middle sizes a standard gift hamper, the largest three a full Christmas or corporate one.

FAQs
Is the leather real?
It depends on the size. The 12 and 14 inch are fitted with faux leather. The 16 inch and above use dark brown leather, and the 22 inch uses double real leather. Worth knowing before you choose, because the sizes are otherwise the same build.
What is buff willow?
Willow boiled with the bark still on, then stripped. The boiling draws tannin out of the bark and into the willow, which is what gives buff its even golden brown. It is the oldest and most traditional of our finishes.
Which size should I choose for a gift hamper?
The 12 and 14 inch suit a bottle and a few treats. The 16 and 18 inch are the standard hamper sizes and the ones most people buy. The 20, 22 and 24 inch are for a full Christmas or corporate hamper.
Which lining colours are available?
Black, Red, White, Grey Sage and Navy Blue across the range, with Green as an additional option on the 22 inch. Every size can also be left unlined.
