Style Note
A sculptural handwoven form that bridges craft and design, offering timeless warmth and quiet sophistication.
Description
A striking mid-century to late 20th-century handwoven basket showcasing the timeless sculptural “buttocks” form, celebrated for its symmetry and organic beauty. Crafted from sturdy split reed with a warm, naturally aged patina, this piece embodies the artistry and function of traditional Appalachian basketry.
Its double-lobed base and centered handle create a graceful silhouette, part art object, part functional heirloom. Equally suited as a sculptural statement on its own or as a refined catchall for textiles, kindling, or florals, it integrates seamlessly into modern, farmhouse, or organic-inspired interiors.
The craftsmanship reveals thoughtful weaving with balanced proportions and subtle variations that speak to its handmade origins. Light, even patina and minimal wear throughout attest to its age and authenticity.
