Proudly American Made by Minnesota Basketmaker Cathryn Peters
Since 1990, Cathryn’s signature baskets have been her original design, one-of-a-kind (OOAK), handwoven rib-style antler baskets, antler basket sculptures and antler wall artistry.
A variety of naturally shed and harvested deer, moose, reindeer and elk antlers are used in her antler baskets and become the either the handle or focal point of all of her creations. Each antler tells a tale and “speaks” to her, suggesting the form it wants to take.
Cathryn respectfully hand-gathers natural, sustainable materials such as cattail leaves, sweetgrass, birch bark, wild willow, diamond willow, willow bark, lichen, moss, pine cones, tamarack branches and cones and red osier dogwood from her Northern Minnesota homestead and incorporates them into her baskets along with commercially processed imported rattan reed.
And if you’d like to place an order for a custom designed antler basket to fit your home or office, just visit the Antler Basket Commissions page for great ideas and ordering information.
