This vintage French woven metal basket dates from the mid-20th century and features an attractive rectangular form with two large circular handles. The basket is constructed from interwoven flat metal strips, finished with a substantial ribbed rim and decorative wrapped detailing around the handles and edges.
The silver-toned metal has developed a wonderful aged patina, with areas of warm brass colouring creating a distinctive two-tone appearance. The closely woven construction and geometric design give the basket an appealing decorative quality.
Originally intended for bread or table service, it would make a lovely addition to a kitchen or dining table, whether used for serving, displaying fruit or simply as a decorative piece.

The vintage glass storage jars are exactly as advertised. Excellent customer service! I placed two separate orders several days apart, but they were packed and shipped together. I was quickly reimbursed for overage shipping costs before even requesting a refund! Each jar was very well packed to minimize chance of breakage in transit, and they all arrived undamaged. I will shop here again!
Fantastic! Beautiful! I have been hunting for some Alfred Corneau urns for many years, as most sellers won't send them internationally, as well as at such a reasonable exchange rate. Very happy! : )
