This vintage wicker fishing creel was once a trusty companion for anglers, used to carry and keep their catch fresh. Crafted from woven wicker with leather trim and sturdy straps, it’s built for durability.
Though the hinged lid is missing, it still features a shoulder strap and a leather surround with an 12-inch ruler embossed on the rim for measuring fish.
Traditionally, these creels were lined with wet moss and dipped in water, acting as a natural preservative and cooler to keep fish fresh. Today, it’s equally perfect for holding a botanical arrangement, storing magazines, or keeping keys and mail by the front door—an ideal touch for a charming cottage look.
