{HISTORY}

Primitive, handmade charm and a bundle of possibilities overflow from this petite gathering basket. Made of split oak, in the classic basket weave style popular during the early 20th century, this basket is sized at 10.25" inches (length) x 6.5" inches (width) x 5.75" inches (height base to top of handle) making it an ideal carrier for all sorts of purposes both indoors and out.

Its unusual shape - curved upwards and inwards at the middle, makes it especially great for egg collection, vegetable gathering and flower clippings as it offers a more snug and secure environment than a basket that has a more traditional horizontally designed edge. 

A lovely size for many different purposes beyond gathering this little charmer also moonlights as an impromptu picnic basket, a table centerpiece display, a carrier for mealtime odds and ends served outdoors and a pantry organizer. You can never go wrong with a handmade basket as part of your household. They add function and beauty effortlessly day in and day out for decades.
