No5 oval Trug with strapped base is by Dominic Parrette,a basketmaker specialising in woven and constructed frame baskets and one of the only professional makers making traditional sussex trugs. The traditional Sussex trug is made by sourcing of locally grown coppiced chestnut and making use of willow offcuts from the cricket bat-making trade root them within a sustainable local economy. The form of the basket has been informed both by function and available materials, and the design has been refined through generations of makers to the trug that we know today.
