Finding the Right Decorative-baskets for You

Antique and vintage decorative baskets can lend unique charm to any room. And basketmaking is hardly a lost art.

Evidence of basket weaving dates back tens of thousands of years, with one of the most intact examples found in the Judean Desert from the Neolithic period. Historically, baskets have mainly served utilitarian needs — to carry food, store materials and even hold water — but they could also be ornamental objects or have ceremonial or religious purposes.

Native American baskets come from a tradition steeped in generations of skill. There are new and made-to-order baskets from artisans who put their own spin on the ancient art as well as 21st-century pre-owned decorative baskets to complement any furniture style or design preference.

A metal basket or brass basket can match a modern or industrial-style home and add some contrasting rusticity. Wooden baskets, wicker baskets and natural-fiber baskets can easily harmonize with boho chic and cottagecore interiors.

Ceramic baskets are part of the pottery tradition, a craft with a deep heritage in human history. Ceramics are popular in decor again, and the personalization of handmade craftsmanship has served as a sort of anti-Internet to screen-weary decorators. Depending on a ceramic basket’s style, it can fit in with a more formal, cottage, Asian or Southwestern interior theme.

Browse 1stDibs for a wide selection of decorative baskets to fit any design need.

Questions About Wicker Trash Can
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023
    The main differences between a wastebasket and a trash can are function and size. Generally, a waste basket is a small container used indoors to collect waste. A trash can is a larger waste container. Both indoor and outdoor versions are available. Many waste baskets have decorative designs, while trash cans are usually simple metal or plastic containers. Shop a selection of wastebaskets on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024
    The difference between wicker and resin wicker comes down to the source of the materials. Genuine or natural wicker is a woven material produced out of rattan, bamboo, reed, willow and similar fibers. Resin wicker is a man-made material composed of polymers. As a result, resin wicker tends to be more resistant to the effects of weather than naturally derived wicker. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of wicker furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Antique wicker furniture is generally made from rattan. Rattan is a vine-like plant that is located in tropical regions. The bark of the rattan is used for furniture as it is durable, flexible and looks stylish. The core of the plant is also used in furniture-making, making it highly sustainable. Shop a collection of wicker furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024
    There is no clear-cut answer to the question of what's better when it comes to rattan or wicker. In terms of strength, rattan generally comes out on top. However, the craftsmanship will also impact how long a rattan or wicker piece will last. Some people prefer rattan because it has a more natural appearance, but others prize the more uniform look of woven wicker. Also, rattan furniture tends to be pricier than wicker. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of rattan and wicker furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    You can use old wicker baskets in a number of ways. Corral small accessories in them to tidy up your entryway or closet or place flower pots inside to create rustic planters. Hang them on the wall as art or extra storage space. On 1stDibs, shop a range of vintage and antique wicker baskets.

  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    No, resin wicker is not the same as rattan. Rattan is a natural vine that can be woven into wicker to produce baskets, furniture and other pieces. Resin wicker is a synthetic material often used to construct outdoor furniture due to its weather resistant properties. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of rattan pieces.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    Whether vintage wicker is valuable varies based on factors like the maker and what type of furniture it is. Demand is also important: How many pieces like it are available for sale? Because the condition will also greatly affect the value, you may wish to have a certified appraiser inspect your furniture. Wicker furniture from the late 19th century may be valuable, and a complete set of wicker furnishings will certainly garner interest with collectors (as long as the set is in good condition). On 1stDibs, find a collection of wicker furniture and decorative objects.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 5, 2024
    No, rattan isn't better than wicker — they're not interchangeable terms. The use of rattan stretches from prehistory to IKEA. To clarify, rattan is not bamboo, which is a rigid, hollow reed. Stalks of rattan are dense, steamable and bendable, which is why it lends itself to curvaceous designs and infinite creative uses in a way bamboo does not. Nor is rattan synonymous with wicker, which is a broader term for woven items — often made of rattan fibers but also of willow, other pliable reeds or even synthetic materials. Wicker and rattan tend to get a bit of a bad rap, but they can actually mingle with a wide range of styles — when done the right way.

  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024
    To identify vintage wicker furniture, first try looking for a maker's marking, usually found under tabletops or seats. If you find a marking, you can use trusted online resources to determine which company or artisan crafted your furniture. Then, you can read further to determine when they were active and producing pieces like yours. To be vintage, your furniture must be at least 20 but no more than 99 years old. If you don't see a marking or have trouble conducting research, consider having a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer assist you. Find an assortment of vintage wicker furniture on 1stDibs.
