Our Copper Market Basket Collection - Farmers Market Basket
You’re going to love how beautiful and functional these market baskets really are. They’re going to make farmers market trips and wilderness picnics even more enjoyable…
The inspiration behind our copper market basket...
Whilst wandering among the rows of organic cheeses, fresh strawberries, locally sourced vegetables, dried salamis, fragrant mangoes, warm pastries, stunning flowers and Australian honey at our local farmers markets, we were inspired to create a stunning and functional copper market basket that can hold the perfect amount of fresh groceries. While in the designing phase, and after talking to our beautiful customers, we decided to create a patterned basket that allows air flow through the fruits, vegetables and flowers, that’s easy to carry and looks effortlessly stylish so that’s exactly what we set out to create…
Our copper market basket - The story behind the art...
You won’t find another market basket that looks this fantastic and is this functional anywhere else, not to mention one that has been sustainably and ethically created. The durability of the copper wire makes it perfect for carrying fresh produce around the farmers markets and we know that you’re going to love the way that it stands perfectly upright when placed on the ground or in the boot of your car. Because these baskets are also made-to-order, it means that you’ll receive an entirely unique and beautiful basket that has been made just for you…
Wondering how our copper market basket is created?
Due to our entire collection of copper homewares being crafted with strands of 100% recycled copper wire, there is a time consuming preparation process we go through before the copper market caskets are ready to create. Each piece of copper needs to be stripped and untwisted prior to use and also checked for any knots or bumps in the strand. Once the copper has been prepped for use, we then get to work to weave our market baskets to life. We’ve designed a unique weaving strategy which ensures maximum durability and strength while also creating a beautiful and entrancing pattern. Each basket takes an average of 15 hours to create and the design is finished off with a single, woven copper handle to make it easy for carrying and storage. Once the basket has been completed, we then check for any misplaced strands of wire and any discrepancies in the design to ensure that it has been perfectly created just for you.
Eco-friendly shipping & packaging - From Sophia. to you...
Once we’ve received your order at our Brisbane based workshop, we’ll get to work creating your made-to-order copper market basket using the above process. With the basket then completed, we place it inside a recycled cardboard box (while it might not look the prettiest, this is just one of the ways that we are helping to reduce waste and carbon emissions throughout Australia) and make sure that it is protected by surrounding it with sheets of recycled newspaper. We also include a special invitation for you to join The Sophia. Sisterhood of Sustainability – this is a beautiful community which we’re sure you’re going to want to be part of.
While being a member of this community, you’ll have the chance to be inspired by women from all around the world, share your own eco advice, enter exclusive competitions, become involved in our events and projects and plenty more… Once your order has been fully packaged and is ready to ship, we then use Sendle to deliver it entirely carbon neutral to your door. We also remove 100 pieces of rubbish from the environment on your behalf and plant one tree for every shipment of products. These are just a few of the ways we are helping to reduce our impact on the environment while simultaneously giving back to the community.
