Grzegorz Gordat – a young Basketry Master who weaves using top-quality willow. He is an incredibly talented basket maker – there is nothing he couldn’t weave. What’s more, he knows everything there is to know about willow. To make szyszak baskets, he uses wooden moulds. White willow is obtained through the natural process of submerging fresh material in water for a few weeks, which makes it less accessible and more unique. No chemical agents are used in the process of whitening!
