Double Steamed Wicker Garden Trug in 2 Sizes
Double steaming takes the bark off the willow and brings it to an even mid brown, so a pair of these long, shallow trugs match one another. The arched handle is woven into the body. Medium and large are offered, or a set of the two.
Length is what you buy it for: a cutting round of roses or dahlias, a row of leeks, herbs, or hand tools carried out and back. The medium covers a single armful, the large adds width and depth for two. Both go out unlined, so soil taps straight out.

Please be aware, colours may vary slightly as our products are made from natural materials.
The process of basket weaving with willow is naturally sustainable due to the relatively quick growth of the plant fibres. The artisans use traditional weaving methods and techniques to create highly decorative, yet durable, pieces.

FAQs
How do the two sizes differ in practice?
The medium gives 56 x 29 cm of floor at 10 cm deep, which suits a cutting round or a row of leeks. The large adds 7 cm of width and 3 cm of depth, which is the difference between carrying one armful and two.
Is this the same trug as the Light Steamed Wicker Garden Trug?
No. That one is a single size at 44 x 32 cm with sides of 6 to 12 cm, in light steamed willow. These are longer, 56 and 61 cm, come in two sizes and a set, and are double steamed, which is a darker finish.
Can I use it for carrying logs?
For kindling and small split logs, yes. At 10 to 13 cm deep it is too shallow for a proper load, and bark is hard on an unlined weave. Our log baskets are built for that job.
How do I get soil out of the weave?
Turn it upside down over a bed and tap it, then go over the inside with a stiff dry brush. There is no lining to hold damp earth, so it clears quickly and dries fast.
