Practical And Artistic Basketry is a guidebook written by Laura Rollins Tinsley in 1904 that provides comprehensive instructions on the art of basket weaving. The book is divided into two sections; the first section focuses on the practical aspects of basketry, while the second section explores the artistic side of the craft.In the practical section, Tinsley covers the basics of basketry, including the tools and materials needed to create baskets, as well as the different types of weaves and techniques used in basket making. She also provides step-by-step instructions for creating a variety of baskets, such as the common round basket, the oval basket, and the square basket.In the artistic section, Tinsley delves into the more creative aspects of basketry, exploring the use of color, design, and texture in basket making. She provides examples of different styles of baskets, such as the Japanese basket, the Indian basket, and the African basket, and explains how to incorporate these styles into your own work.Throughout the book, Tinsley emphasizes the importance of using natural materials in basketry, such as reeds, grasses, and vines, and encourages readers to experiment with different materials and techniques to create their own unique baskets. With its detailed instructions and beautiful illustrations, Practical And Artistic Basketry is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art of basket weaving.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
