This bent handle basket was made in China long ago, and the artisan’s mastery is evident: the strong, flexible willow strips are skillfully intertwined into a delicate pattern.

The wider bands of the handle add presence and strength to the intricate patterning represented in the weave. This particular example is further decorated with finely painted Chinese characters. It has worn beautifully with time, but remains in remarkable condition as a testament to its craftsmanship. We love it for firewood, toys, wastepaper or anything you want stored beautifully. less
