This antique Chinese fisherman's basket is one such example, hand-woven of river reeds and cord in the early 20th century. The body is simply woven with a graceful swell and finished with reed lashing wrapped around the rim to a herringbone pattern. Darkened to a rich, medium brown tone, the vintage basket is ideal today as an elegant waste bin, laundry hamper or storage container. See less
