Description

This vintage hand-woven basket carrier is constructed from rattan, wicker, and wood, and is suitable for use as a magazine rack or storage caddy. The item features a prominent arched double-pole rattan handle that extends down the sides for added structural stability. The main body consists of panels with a complex geometric woven pattern. Braided wicker trim decorates the top edge, bottom edge, and vertical corners. The base is made of a solid wood panel secured within a rattan frame. The style is indicative of mid-20th century bohemian or coastal decor. No maker’s marks, labels, or stamps are visible on the object.Height: 15.5 inchesLength: 18.5 inchesWidth: 7.75 inches.
