A wonderfully timeworn French willow gathering basket, dating to around the 1930s. Handwoven in a generous oval form with a central carrying handle, this substantial basket would have been made for everyday practical use—perfect for gathering produce or carrying goods to and from market.
The willow has developed a beautiful naturally weathered patina, with irregularities in the handwoven construction, age-related wear and an old wrapped reinforcement to the handle.
Its impressive scale makes it a particularly lovely decorative piece for holding linens, firewood, dried flowers or seasonal branches.
France, c. 1930s 28 × 14 in. Vintage condition with wear and old repairs consistent with age and use.
