Vintage Folding Wooden Basket – Mid-Century USA

A beautifully constructed mid-century folding trivet or fruit basket made from warm-toned wood, most likely red cedar. The clever accordion-style design folds open into a sculptural centerpiece with gentle curves and elegantly angled feet. A functional object that moves with ease between display and use.
This type of collapsible basket has been made in countless variations across cultures and decades — from Scandinavian craft to American folk design to Asian joinery traditions. This particular one was made in the U.S. between the 1950's and 70's, standing out with its sculpted feet and sturdier slats. The thick construction and fine details hint at small-scale production and skilled handiwork.
A lovely companion for the kitchen table or sideboard, especially for lovers of traditional woodcraft and clever functional design.
