Big Bertha Bogweed Sea Basket is handwoven from reclaimed crab pot rope.  She is woven from an ocean watery soft green color with a nice fat aqua blue stripe around her midline. Spines of the same  two colors give her a uniform look.  Big Bertha has two little side loop  handles.  She is extra large in size, very  sturdy and functional. She will fit in anywhere, offering her usefullness ... Hearth, toy room,  holding a large plant, indoor or out because it's ok if this rope gets wet!
 
This Sea Basket was hand woven out of rope which has been sourced directly from our local fishermen.The rope itself has beautifully distinctive characteristic marks from its time spent in the ocean. The rusty marks come from the crab fishing and rope storage process. We like to preserve as much of the history of the rope’s fishing usefulness as possible. Look carefully and you will find knots, rope splices, loops and more, woven directly into this basket.
