About the Item

This woven tray basket was originally used for harvesting grains or in a kitchen for food prep and storage. Despite its humble origin, the basket exhibits remarkable workmanship, beautifully woven by hand of willow and cord around a bent wood rim. The basket has been darkened to a rich shade of brown with a mottled, timeworn texture. Rich with character, the basket is ideal today as a fruit bowl, a serving vessel or a storied home for sundry objects. Losses to banding around the rim.
