Wicker Stories is more than an online store.

It is a family dream that is being realized with a sense of purpose every day. It is the life of many of us who share the old craft of basketry to this day, weaving natural wicker utility and decorative products in many ways: the folk style and those enriched by the imagination, conservation technique, and skills of modern basket makers.
We are a married couple from a small village in Podkarpacie, Łętownia next to Rudnik nad Sanem. We live in the heart of the wickerwork district. We have lived here for generations, living the history of the area interrupted by the communist era. One day our dad envisioned resurrecting this old neighborhood creation.
