Athénaïs Vercelloti is a basket maker and willow grower alongside her partner Maël Guiriec, an artisan basket maker (Atelier Dioica).
Both graduates of the National School of Basketry and Wickerwork and trained by Meilleurs Ouvriers de France, they are committed to passing on this rare skill.
Their basketry workshop is located in the commune of Saint-Myon. This is where their creations are born, the fruit of their mastery of technique and materials.
Their main raw material is wicker, which they began growing in the Tarn (81). But they also experiment with mixing materials to create original and unique pieces.

The basket-making couple creates pieces to order, participates in events related to arts and crafts, and organizes basket-making courses for beginners.
