Zoomorphic Style Duck Basket Vintage Handcrafted Woven Seagrass Lidded Storage

Sculptural folk art and functional storage define this vintage zoomorphic style duck basket. Handcrafted using traditional coiling, natural seagrass fibers are wrapped over a sturdy frame to create the lifelike silhouette of a waterfowl. The zoomorphic design transforms a standard vessel into a bird sculpture, featuring a curved neck, detailed head, and a custom-fitted lid that forms the duck's back. A tight weave showcases natural variegated tones, offering a durable and organic texture for any interior. It serves as both a decorative conversation piece and a practical container for small household items. Measures approximately 10 and 1/2 inches long and 6 inches tall. Pre-owned vintage item.
