-
Description
This large 19th-century wicker basket is a fine example of traditional craftsmanship. Handwoven from durable natural fibers, its elongated shape and open-weave structure suggest it was originally used as a drying basket - ideal for airing herbs, grains, or linens in rural households. Featuring braided side handles for easy transport and a rich, aged patina that only time can provide. Whether displayed as a statement piece or used for storage, it brings a touch of heritage and authenticity to any interior.
