Log Basket

A log basket is a portable container used to carry firewood from storage to the hearth and to attractively display a small supply of logs beside the fireplace. Unlike fixed log racks, baskets can be easily carried outdoors to the woodpile and brought back fully loaded, combining the functions of transport and display in a single piece. Their natural materials and handcrafted character bring warmth and texture to the fireside area. Traditional log baskets are woven from materials such as willow, rattan, or wicker, lending a natural organic element to the hearth setting. More contemporary options include metal wire, canvas, and leather designs that suit modern interiors. The basket shape naturally cradles logs in an attractive tumbled arrangement that looks casual and inviting. When filled with a mix of birch, oak, or other attractive firewood, a log basket becomes a decorative vignette that signals warmth and hospitality even before the fire is lit.
