Antique/Vintage Hand-Coiled Fiber Basket – Aged Patina with Faded Interior Pattern
A rustic, well-worn coiled basket with genuine age and character. The interior shows the faint ghost of a darker woven pattern that has faded with time, while the exterior has developed a rich, warm honey-brown patina from years of handling.
Details:
- Coiled construction — bundled natural fiber wound and stitched in a continuous spiral from a central point, visible clearly on the interior base
- Rounded bowl form with slightly flared sides
- Natural, undyed fiber throughout, aged to a deep tan/brown patina
- Faint traces of a darker pattern remain on the interior — likely a woven or painted design that has faded significantly with age (see photos)
- Loose fiber ends visible at the rim, consistent with natural wear from age and use — not current damage, but honest signs of a well-loved piece
- Sturdy structure overall; a lovely example of traditional hand-coiled basketry
Measurements:
Approx. 9" diameter x 3" tall
A wonderful piece for collectors of ethnographic or folk basketry, or anyone drawn to objects with real age and a story of their own.
