Adrian Charlton has been making baskets since 1985 after seeing a basket maker at a market in North Norfolk. He studied traditional English basketmaking skills as Master Basket Maker Terry Bensley apprentice and has since studied and expanded these techniques to include French and Spanish styles. In 2000 he and his partner Ruth Kidd, who studied basket making under Adrian, formed the Norfolk Basket Company.
The Norfolk Basket Company recommend that you leave your willow baskets outside in the rain once or twice a year to tighten them up. You can also just wet them and scrub with a washing up brush for a good clean up and leave outside in the wind to dry.
