Handmade Furnas Natural Wicker Large Basket

Vime is a traditional craft that utilizes willow, harvested annually from the lush landscapes of the Azores. The process begins with boiling the willow in the natural hot springs of Furnas, which enhances its flexibility and prepares it for weaving. This versatile material is skillfully transformed into 100% natural pieces, each reflecting the creativity and volcanic heritage of Portugal. Crossing unique textures and organic forms, our VIME collection captures the island’s untamed beauty and the rich cultural history behind the craft, ensuring that its artistry and vibrancy continue to flourish.
