This thoughtfully designed utilitarian form was intended for everyday use, with strap loops allowing a removable leather, canvas, or webbing strap to be attached for comfortable carrying.

The basket was well suited for market trips, gathering produce, or household use, and the strap design allowed it to be carried hands-free or hung on a peg when not in use. The original strap is no longer present, as is typical, but the woven loops remain intact and beautifully incorporated into the original construction.

The basket is structurally sound and retains its shape exceptionally well. Evenly spaced interior reinforcement stitches are original to the weaving process and reflect quality craftsmanship rather than later repair. No breaks, losses, or repairs are noted.

A versatile piece that works beautifully in organic modern, boho, wabi-sabi, or California casual interiors—ideal for storing throws, magazines, firewood, or pantry items.
