Enjoy a hands-on bulrush weaving workshop with Felicity Irons, founder of Rushmatters - one of the last of the English rush weavers - at the British Standard Cupboards Hoxton showroom.

Learn how to craft your very own basket, using crops Irons harvests herself from a punt on the river Ouse and a range of techniques including twining, coiling, plaiting, knotting, sewing and roping.

Over the course of a freshly prepared lunch, Irons will be in conversation with Katie Fontana, founder of British Standard by Plain English, discussing the history and traditions of a craft that remains unchanged since Anglo Saxon times. In addition, guests will be served afternoon tea at 4pm.
