This is an antique Chinese rice basket intricately woven in a beautiful pattern with tsutsu dake (aged bamboo). Very likely originally used for carrying grain. It weighs over 3 pounds.
It has been in storage or carefully displayed for much of the past century and with exception to some minor signs of wear, this basket remains in very good condition. The handle is a bit loose and it looks like there was an attempted repair with glue to stabilize the handle. It measures 22" long (56 cm) by 17 1/2" wide (44.5 cm) by 15" tall (38 cm).
