Cane Coffins and Water Filters
Our talented team have a variety of skills!
Casket Making
John Dempster is highly experienced in basket weaving. He creates beautiful wicker coffins and water filters from locally grown and sourced willow.
Our unique hand-woven caskets are made from renewable sources that are eco-friendly and biodegradable. They can be crafted in a variety of sizes.
Water filters are created from the left-over cane from the casket making process and are used by the local Fire Brigades when pumping water from creeks or ponds.
