A beautifully preserved antique sewing basket dating to the early 20th century, crafted in handwoven wicker with sculptural wrought iron handles, feet, and latch hardware. The basket features a hinged lid and elevated base, characteristic of Arts & Crafts-era utility pieces designed for sewing and needlework storage. Rich patina throughout the wicker and iron elements adds depth and authenticity. Unmarked, consistent with early artisan basketry of the period. A striking decorative accent with practical storage appeal.
