PROCESS

The hoop, ribs and weavers are all of hazel. The technique of raising and dressing hazel strips from one rod to create weavers is a skilful process, honed for many years. The hoop and ribs are made from the centre of the rod which remains after raising the weaving strips. The hazel rods need to be at least 5 years old and preferably slow grown on the North side of woodland or coppice.
