This antique wash round wicker log basket is a hessian lined willow basket with rope handles, available in three sizes or as a set of all three. The medium measures 40 cm across the top and 34 cm deep on a 35 cm base, and weighs 1.3 kg. It takes logs and kindling beside a stove or open fire, and works just as well for throws, cushions or towels.
The rope handles are stitched through the rim and worked into the weave, not tacked onto the outside. It is a small distinction until you lift a basket full of logs, at which point the load is carried by the whole basket rather than by two fixing points. The body tapers as well, narrower at the base than the top, so it sits tight to a hearth while still opening wide enough to drop logs in without aiming.

FAQs
Which size suits a wood burner?
The medium. At 40 cm across and 34 cm deep it takes roughly a day's logs. The large and extra large are for an open fire, or for anyone who would rather refill every few days than every morning.
What are the dimensions of the larger sizes?
We are still waiting on confirmed figures from our supplier for the large, extra large and the set of three. Email us and we will measure one before you order.
Are rope handles strong enough?
Yes, because of how they are fitted. Stitched through the rim and into the weave, they pull against the structure of the basket rather than against a fixing.
Does it work away from a fireplace?
The round shape suits throws and cushions in a living room, towels in a bathroom, or toys where the job is filling it quickly at the end of the day.
