VINTAGE CANE HARVESTING BASKET
An unusual and attractive vintage cane & wicker basket probably designed as a harvesting basket, or carrying fish.
Ideal as a bread, fruit, veg storage basket or use as a garden trug. It would also be good as a sewing or knitting basket if a liner was sewn inside. How about using it as a toy basket to store Lego or building blocks for instance, or your pets toys even. I can also see this being useful for shoe brushes and polish, or cleaning products. Bathroom toilet tissue rolls, hand towels etc?
Condition: On one corner some of the willow strip is missing – the end has been glued down so it won’t unravel further (see photos). Very sturdy, lovely aged patina.
