This egg gathering basket is perfect for fresh eggs, garden harvest, Easter treats, fruits, lunches, or dried flower arrangements. This basket style originated in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.  Early immigrants shared their basketry techniques with the Cherokee Indians, who developed unique hand-dyed splint baskets with materials available in New England. Artisans in the Ozarks and Appalachian Mountains continue to make sturdy egg baskets with oak, ash, hickory, and maple splints and handles.

The kit contains two twisted rattan hoops for the rim and handle, flat reed and a simple instruction booklet.
