Valérie Lavaure works from her remote studio just outside Uzès, France, where she weaves beautiful, functional baskets by hand. With a soft spot for colour, she explores the rich spectrum afforded by the different varieties of willow, just like the array of tints on this basket. Although purpose-built by design – intended for asparagus and other vegetables – it’s equipped for a host of other functions, both in and out of the home.

Valérie Lavaure hand-weaves beautiful baskets from her studio in a remote forest hideaway outside Uzès, France. She discovered her love for basketry during the early 2000s while watching an expert weaver at work; ever since, she’s explored her passion by working with specialists across various establishments, from the Vannerie de Villaines cooperative to the Fayl-Billot school. Today, she looks to fellow artisans and established traditions for inspiration, taking purpose-built designs – like asparagus and strawberry baskets – and putting a multi-functional spin on them.
