Product Story
∨
The curved opening has always been a mark of thoughtful design — baskets shaped to make daily tasks easier, to hold what matters without fuss, to sit by the hearth as both tool and heirloom. This log basket honours that quiet practicality.
Handwoven from natural wicker with a soft antique wash finish, each piece carries the warmth of handmade craft. The curved opening makes loading logs effortless — no awkward angles, no spilled bark — while the antique patina adds character that deepens with every season. The kind of basket that earns its place by the fire, year after year.
Named after Broadway, one of Worcestershire's most beautiful villages where honey-stone cottages and timeless craft still define the landscape, this basket belongs to homes that value substance over trend — where a well-made piece with a clever design becomes part of the rhythm of daily life.

Frequently Asked Questions
›
What makes the curved opening design better?
The curved opening makes loading logs significantly easier — you can drop logs in from any angle without them catching on the rim. It's a thoughtful design feature that makes daily use more pleasant, especially when your hands are full.
Will the antique wash finish rub off or fade?
No. The antique wash is a stain applied during weaving, not a surface coating. It won't rub off, though like all natural materials, wicker may lighten slightly with years of sun exposure.
Can I use this for storage other than logs?
Absolutely. These baskets work beautifully for blankets, magazines, toys, kindling, or general household storage. The curved opening and neutral finish suit any room.
Does it come fully assembled?
Yes. It arrives ready to use — no assembly required. Simply remove from packaging and fill with logs.
Does the liner protect my floors?
Yes. The hessian liner helps catch loose bark and debris, keeping your floors cleaner and protecting carpets from scratches.
