This antique French basket is hand coiled from rye, willow, and grasses and dates to the early 1900s. Originally used for gathering and storing grain, its tall, structured form now makes it an ideal decorative vessel. Beautifully preserved, it shows a rich patina with minimal exposure to harsh conditions, giving it a clean yet storied appearance. The tight coiling and subtle tonal variation add depth and texture that only comes with age.
