Description

A 19th century Chinese grain basket handwoven of cane and bamboo. In 19th century China baskets such as these were used to store or transport grain. It features a base of cane, woven with an intricate star-shaped pattern on a bamboo framework. The circular basket showcases a brown refined cane weaving throughout, except on its bottom and on its edge, which features a two-colored geometrical weaving.

 

This 19th century hand woven Chinese cane and bamboo grain basket would be an exotic item in most homes, perhaps in a dining or living room where it could be an storage unit for small items or utensils.
