A charming small-scale English wicker basket from the early 20th century, featuring handwoven willow construction and stenciled black lettering across the front reading WOODLAND. Its compact size and domed lid suggest it may have originally served as a delivery or goods basket, possibly for a grocer, apothecary, or textile company.
The basket retains a warm, honeyed patina and simple leather loop closure on the front. The lid is hinged with integral woven willow strands, and its low profile makes it ideal for use on shelves or tabletops as storage for small household items, letters, or keepsakes.
A delightful decorative accent with rustic charm and understated historic character.
