You'll find one of the widest selections of picnic baskets in the world on our site! Traditional hampers, designer baskets, fine bone china picnic hampers and our fun, fashionable Carnival picnic collection.

Optima have been making traditional English picnic hampers for over 60 years and hand fit picnic baskets with fine china, glass and table linens. Whether you're looking for a hamper to picnic at a special concert or the races, to complement your treasured classic car or for an outdoor party, then we think you'll find an Optima picnic product to suit. Our designer collection includes Emma Bridgwater and T G Green Cornishware collectors' picnic baskets and we offer a deluxe Wedgwood fine bone china for the ultimate picnic experience.

Each traditional English hamper is hand woven from full willow from sustainable sources. Unlike most picnic baskets, our traditional hampers are woven with European willow that turns a beautiful golden colour, naturally in the sun. We only use soft leather on all the handles and straps in our traditional ranges.

As well as traditional picnic hampers, our Voyager range of fitted picnic backpacks offers a stylish alternative to our traditional baskets.

Our Carnival picnic collection is contemporary, chic and just a little more casual. With bold colour themes and fun patterns, this is a lower priced, fun range where you'll find matching hampers, picnic backpacks and accessories.

We also fill our willow baskets with delectable food and wine and have a range of hampers and gift baskets starting at just £25, delivered free to any UK mainland address. Our food and wine hamper selection is available all year round with a bigger range for Christmas deliveries and we offer both a personal and corporate hamper gift service.

Many of our baskets make wonderful gifts for anniversaries, birthdays or just to say 'thank you'. We can send your choice as a gift with a complimentary, hand written gift card at no extra charge. There is space for your message on the on-line shop order form or we can take your instructions by 'phone.

We are experienced at exporting our products all around the world. With the exception of food items, where import restrictions apply in some countries, we can quote our price plus delivery by international courier. We show prices for mainland UK and most European addresses but please contact us if you would like a quote for a different destination.
