Leaf Bowl

$250.00

Small, Sculptural, and Handwoven

This Leaf Bowl by Anne Scarpa McCauley is handwoven from wild honeysuckle vine gathered in the Appalachian mountains of North Carolina. A delicate leaf motif rests gently along the rim, adding a quiet sculptural detail inspired by the natural world.

The softly curved bowl form creates a warm, inviting silhouette, while the open weave gives the piece an airy, textural presence. It’s perfectly sized for bedside tables, coffee tables, or layered styling with larger baskets.

Each basket is shaped slowly by hand, allowing the natural curve of the vine to guide the final form. No two are identical — each one reflecting the quiet beauty of traditional Appalachian basketry.

A thoughtful, sculptural accent — small in scale, but rich in character.

In the Smithsonian. And on your table.

Two of Anne's baskets live in the Smithsonian's permanent collection. These are made the same way, by the same hands, from the same pattern she invented at twelve. The difference is you can fill this one with bread and set it out for company.

Built to be used, not admired

Strong, light, and made to be handled — Anne builds these for use, not for a shelf. Larger ones carry a wire through the handle, wrapped back over in honeysuckle, so you can load them up and pass them down the table without a second thought.

A young girl in a green field kneels beside a woven basket, with sheep and rolling hills in the background.

Self-taught at twelve. Still weaving.

Anne is entirely self-taught. She worked out her weave at twelve, tending goats in the Virginia hills, and has used that same pattern for every basket since — well over forty years of them. No lessons, no borrowed methods. Just hers.

Craftsman Profile

Anne Scarpa McCauley

Born in Vermont, Anne moved with her family to Virginia at age four. She grew up in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, one of eleven children.

Her family, early hippies, had many animals including dairy goats. Anne often had the job of tending the herd of goats on unfenced parts of the property. Anne sometimes made little circles or wreaths for her hair with the nearby honeysuckle. At age twelve she made her first basket, using a coil made of honeysuckle. This same coil pattern is used in all her baskets.

Anne's baskets are original and unique. She has never taken lessons, studied books or contacted other basket makers for ideas. Anne has been making these for over thirty years and has won many awards, including being included in the Smithsonian's collection of American craft objects at the Renwick Gallery.
