Description :
Vintage Southeast Asian lidded basket, meticulously hand-woven from split bamboo and natural rattan. Baskets of this distinctive shape and structure—featuring a bulbous, slightly squared body, reinforced vertical corner supports, a fitted lid, and a built-in wooden platform base—are traditionally found across Thailand, Laos, and neighboring regions, where they are often used for storing rice, harvesting crops, or holding clothing and personal belongings. Features a beautiful, tight twill or herringbone weave pattern utilizing natural split bamboo strips, giving it a warm caramel patina. Structurally reinforced with thick vertical bamboo rods tied along the corners to distribute weight efficiently. The bottom is secured into a solid, protective square wooden base designed to elevate the container off the floor, shielding the contents from moisture and pests. Equipped with functional arched carrying handles tied directly into the framework for secure transport. 14”x14”x15”
