In Philippe's workshop, you will find a selection of raw wicker offering various shades of bark. This artisan basket weaver works mainly with debarked so-called "white" wicker, which requires meticulous sorting and allows for finesse in the rendering.

Full, damask, crocane, chevron fence, openwork fence with trace, single or double uprights, corded or so-called Alsatian handles...
The choice and weaving of plants is rich in a multitude of combinations.

Used whole or split and spliced, wicker can be used to make a multitude of objects ranging from the largest in size: trunks, chests, baskets, decorative panels... to the smallest: bracelets, rattles, cups...

Traditional forms remain unavoidable, but in the work the imagination is the only limit!

The workshop is open with or without appointment for a discovery or rediscovery of this exciting profession. Philippe also offers discovery courses in initiation and improvement.
