Vintage Tall Chinese Grain Basket

Bring the spirit of old-world craftsmanship into your home with this Vintage Tall Chinese grain basket, a beautifully aged piece once used for storing rice and grains in rural China. Handwoven from natural materials and finished with a sturdy timber rim and double handle design, this basket is a stunning example of functional artistry.

Every detail tells a story, from the rich, dark patina developed over decades of use, to the timeworn texture that adds depth and authenticity. Its elongated form and generous capacity make it not only a collector's treasure but also a practical, decorative storage solution for modern interiors.

The tall, narrow shape of this basket with wood reinforcement and handles were often found in Shanxi and Henan, where the baskets needed to be sturdy for carrying large grain loads over long distances

Perfect for:

• Rustic and farmhouse styling

• Organic, wabi-sabi interiors

• Displaying dried flowers, storing firewood, or housing rolled linens

• Showcasing heritage charm in entryways or under console tables

Whether used as a standalone statement piece or integrated into a styled vignette, this vintage basket invites conversation and brings warmth to any space.
