Authentic Vintage East Asian Hand-Woven Willow Rice Gathering Basket

Beautiful vintage East Asian hand-woven willow gathering basket, traditionally used as a harvest or rice basket. Features a stunning, dense vertical plait weave with a flared mouth, a completely woven sturdy base, and two thick, bent hardwood side handles wrapped securely in rattan. This is a beautiful, highly collectible accent piece that brings immediate warmth and texture to any space. It makes an excellent decorative planter, a unique fireside log holder, or stylish rustic storage for blankets, towels, or magazines.

The weave is incredibly tight and strong. There are a few tiny, minor cosmetic scrapes on the outer finish along the rim and body (please see photos for details), which is completely normal for authentic utilitarian pieces of this age and adds to its rustic character. No broken structural pieces, unraveling, or loose handles. Clean interior. Meetup within three days of sale at the East Bremerton Walmart on Hwy 303. Please bring exact amount as I will not have any cash on me, thank you.
