Vintage Market Basket | Large French Style Woven Basket has the beautifully collected look we love in old utilitarian pieces. At 22 inches long, its elongated shape, substantial woven construction, and tall fixed handle give it wonderful presence without feeling bulky. The warm brown finish has aged naturally over time, highlighting the weave, wrapped bindings, and sturdy framework. We love it filled with garden vegetables or flowers, but it is just as beautiful left empty on a kitchen island or farmhouse table.
Our favorite detail is the construction. The heavier framework is joined with rows of wrapped bindings, while the finer weave follows the long oval shape of the basket and continues into the reinforced base. There is something especially appealing about pieces like this that were made to be useful and have become more beautiful with age.
We would fill it with vegetables from the garden, seasonal fruit, fresh flowers, or folded linens, or simply leave it empty and let the shape and old weave speak for themselves. The long profile also makes it particularly good down the center of a dining table or on a kitchen island where a round basket might take up too much space.
