Woven Vintage Gathering Basket With Bentwood Handle
Description
A beautifully handcrafted vintage basket featuring a structured square form, gently flared sides, and a wide bentwood handle. The alternating honey and deeper brown splint weave creates subtle dimension and warmth, giving it a collected, countryside feel reminiscent of traditional European gathering baskets.
This appears to be a late 20th-century American handwoven oak or ash splint basket, likely dating to the 1970s–1990s and possibly studio-made or regional craft. It features tight woven construction, a reinforced rim, and a two-tone pattern that adds visual interest.
A versatile size for rolled linens, toys, books, storage, or display.
Approx. 11” x 12”
13” tall (including handle)
Good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age. One small break in the weave, shown in photos, that does not affect overall structure.
