Up until this point, I really thought that wicker had only one practical purpose: the creation of 2-story tall, flaming effigies (a la Wicker Man... What!? You've never seen the Wicker Man!? Yeah, don't bother). Anyway, I was so wrong. You can make caskets out of wicker too! The Somerset Willow Company's talented basket weaving staff weaves, by hand, wonderful wicker coffins.

Ohhhh the Wicker Man...that movie is the reason why your DVD player has a Fast Forward button.
