• Hand-made trug using traditional methods – including the use of froe, drawknives and shaving horse.
• The handle and frame rim are from local coppiced sweet chestnut and the boards form cricket-bat willow, soaked to make them pliable enough to bend before being nailed to the frame.
• The result is nothing short of a work of art, an all-purpose garden trug for anything from collecting crops and flowers to carrying small hand tools and a bail of string.
• This Sussex Trug measures 50cm x 28cm

"Sussex Trugs are durable, incredibly strong yet lightweight and of course, in this disposable age of mass production a thing of intrinsic beauty." - Kitchen Garden, December 2006
"Hand crafted Sussex Trugs are the ones to choose: they’re very sturdy and will last for years." - Move to the Country, August 2007
