Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Weaving a basket and the craft of being a basketmaker is one of the oldest crafts in the world. Even though the transiciency of the material has played its part in making it difficult to find traces of it in the course of history, there are still traces dating all the way back to the pre-history. The prehistorian human wove the walls of his house and there are several remainders found that support the hypothosis that the first baked pots were clay-covered woven baskets.
In the Western world this craft is nowadays often used almost only for demonstrative purposes. Most of the baskets are being imported from low-wage countries. In Belgium and surrounding there is, however, still a strong culture present to keep crafts alive and also the local qualitative products. Also further down in Europe and the rest of the world there are plenty enthousiasts to be found who keep this wonderful craft alive. Nederlands: Het vlechten van een mand en het ambacht van mandenmaker is een van de oudste ambachten ter wereld. Ook al heeft de vergankelijkheid van het materiaal ertoe bijgedragen dat er in de loop van de geschiedenis moeilijk sporen van te vinden zijn, toch zijn er nog sporen die helemaal teruggaan tot de prehistorie. De prehistorische mens weefde de muren van zijn huis en er zijn verschillende overblijfselen gevonden die de hypothese ondersteunen dat de eerste gebakken potten met klei bedekte gevlochten manden waren. In de westerse wereld wordt dit ambacht tegenwoordig bijna alleen nog gebruikt voor demonstratiedoeleinden. De meeste manden worden geïmporteerd uit lageloonlanden. In België en omgeving is er echter nog steeds een sterke cultuur aanwezig om de ambachten levend te houden en ook de lokale kwalitatieve producten. Ook verder in Europa en de rest van de wereld zijn er genoeg enthousiastelingen te vinden die dit prachtige ambacht in leven houden.
