Product description

Lot: a classic woven wicker storage/picnic basket featuring a hinged lid, a twisted rope-style top handle and four small wooden feet. The basket is complete and holds its shape — photos show the lid, interior and close-ups of the weaving. Strong visible features are the woven hinge loops, the wrap-around rim binding and the rope-style handle that remains attached.

Practical uses: a versatile piece for home storage, rustic decor, craft or picnic use, or a tidy restoration project for a maker or stylist. It suits a living room, utility room or market stall display and will appeal to crafters, prop stylists or anyone after characterful storage that can be used as-is or improved with simple repairs.
