Full description
Beautiful all natural woven willow bangle, handmade by Basketweaver Anna Liebmann from English willow.
See the willow shine in a never ending circle around your wrist. The bangle is made using all natural buff willow grown on the Somerset Levels, near Bridgwater, England. The willow has been boiled and stripped giving it a gorgeous golden colour. The bangle is very light in weight and with use the willow will gain a rich patina, becoming shinier over time. Willow is a natural and renewable resource, being cut every winter once the leaves have fallen, then graded for use in basketry, fence making and.... jewellery in this case!
Outer edge to outer edge size approx 4 inches x 4 inches 10cm x 10cm.
Thickness of weaving approx 12 inch 1.5cm
Fits most wrists
Inner diameter at widest point approx 3 inches 7.5cm
English Somerset Buff Willow.
Handmade by Basketweaver Anna Liebmann.
I make functional baskets and teach traditional basketry in Edinburgh and beyond. I make these bangles in my workshop overlooking the sea, as a small wearable taster of willow weaving past and present. The willow is soaked in water for 2 hours to become pliable, left to mellow for at least half an hour (just as in basketmaking!), then I proceed to make the bangles, starting with one circle then feeding in new willows to keep the weaving going. It's hard to make tight circles but worth it for the beautiful result.
Designed by Anna Liebmann in Edinburgh
