About Your Basket

This item is a classic "Gathering Basket," also known as a "Market Basket" or "Flower Basket." Its key features are the high, sturdy handle and the deep, open-weave bowl.

Key Features & Materials

Style: It has a rustic, farmhouse-style charm. The weaving technique, particularly the crisscross pattern at the base, is both decorative and functional, providing a strong foundation.
Handle: The high, arched handle is its most defining feature. This design makes it easy to carry on your arm, keeping the basket level while you "gather" items, whether from a garden or a market.

Material: Baskets like this are traditionally handwoven from natural, sustainable materials. Common materials for this style include:
Willow: Known for its flexibility and strength.
Rattan: A strong, vine-like palm.
Split Bamboo: Often used for its sturdiness and lighter weight.

Your basket appears to be made from one of these natural woods, giving it that authentic, earthy look.
