Esherick-Inspired Basket
Woodworker: Ken BellA retired music teacher and avid tree farmer, Bell has been making baskets for 22 years. He based the design of this peck basket (10-3⁄4-in. dia. by 10-1⁄2-in. tall) on factory-made produce baskets made from poplar that he saw as a child in southern New Jersey. Bell’s piece is more refined than the factory basket, but no less functional—he’s been using a similar one as a firewood carrier for two decades. Photo: James Mario
