Description
Bring a touch of historical craftsmanship and cultural richness to your home with this unique antique woven basket, likely hailing from Southeast Asia in the late 19th to early 20th century. Standing 21 inches tall, this hand-crafted piece features a distinctive pouch-like shape, complete with a fitted lid and a sturdy handle, suggesting it was originally used for storage, carrying goods, or potentially agricultural purposes.
The intricate weaving pattern, fashioned from bamboo or rattan, and the overall design are characteristic of traditional Southeast Asian basketry. The warm, earthy tones and the aged patina of the woven fibers speak to its antique status and add a sense of authenticity to the piece.
This basket's design, with its lid and handle, indicates a practical purpose, possibly for storing household items, carrying goods to market, or transporting agricultural products.
Now it serves not only as a unique decorative object but also as a tangible piece of history. Display it as a standalone statement piece or use it to hold dried botanicals, textiles, or other decorative items, adding a touch of rustic charm and global appeal to your décor.
**Please bear in mind that colors of products shown may vary slightly from their original color due to monitor display settings or photography studio.
