Description

Before shopping bags were introduced, our ancestors went to the market to buy their food using 'panara,' which were real handmade baskets. They're made by weaving long willow sticks, with a lot of care and patience. With this technique, you can create additional containers and often even 'lucky charms' like cornucopias. Thanks to the support of local artisans who continue to carry on this wonderful tradition, we'll create our own personal object of woven willows. A dive into tradition, mixed with dedication, patience, and love.
