About the Item

An antique farmer's grain basket from the 19th century, with cylindrical silhouette, iridescent motifs and lid. This 19th-century antique farmer's grain basket from the Philippines is an embodiment of rustic charm and utilitarian history. The basket features a tall, cylindrical silhouette with a flaring base, crafted from rattan that has aged gracefully, showcasing a beautifully weathered patina.

Topped with a woven circular lid, this piece encapsulates the traditional craftsmanship of its origins. It offers versatile functionality and can be repurposed in modern homes as a unique storage solution for blankets in a living room, towels in a bathroom, or even umbrellas in a mudroom.
