Description
A wonderfully motley crew of woven wicker baskets in varying sizes, from petite round gathering baskets to grand oversized market totes with arched handles. Materials span traditional rattan and wicker weaves, a boldly painted white wicker basket, a purple-dyed willow statement piece, and a rustic dark-stained basket with dramatic sunburst base weaving. Several feature classic over-the-arm handles ideal for farmers markets, picnics, or harvest display, and one cheerful basket even comes pre-loaded with fresh red apples for full cottagecore effect.
A standout antique bushel-style barrel basket constructed from thin slat wood panels held together by wire banding, displaying beautifully aged patina and the satisfying craftsmanship of old-school orchard and agricultural traditions. The interior reveals a sunburst spoke pattern typical of vintage apple or grain bushel baskets, and while it shows honest wear including minor splits consistent with age and use, it remains structurally sound and visually stunning. This is the kind of piece that looks equally at home on a farmhouse porch or in a styled interior vignette.
Scattered throughout the lot are several smaller accent baskets including a tiny square dark-woven basket, a reed basket with intricate herringbone base pattern, a moss-green floral foam brick tucked inside a handled basket ready for flower arranging, and loose dried straw nestled in a deep purple willow tray basket adding wonderful rustic texture to the overall collection.
