Congratulations to NBO member and basketmaker Deloss Webber, finalist for the Loewe Craft prize.
Del has been creating cane work and furniture since the early 1970s. “I have a fascination with stone, which [feels] primal,” he explains to AD. Combining rattan and stone was therefore a natural choice for him. He continues, “The marriage of fibers and stone is, I think, unique. I borrow from tradition, of course.”
