Amish Country Picnic Basket

At 12 inches in length, this basket is sized for intimate outings rather than large group gatherings. It comfortably fits a standard bottle of wine, a few snacks, and a couple of cloth napkins, making it ideal for a solo lunch or a date-night picnic.

The wooden lid is designed as a removable cover rather than a hinged attachment. This allows you to easily lift it off to access your items or use the lid as a flat surface for setting down drinks or plates while you're dining.

To keep the reed in good condition, simply wipe it down with a slightly damp cloth to remove dust or debris. Avoid submerging the basket in water, and if it gets wet, let it air dry completely in a well-ventilated area to prevent mildew.

Yes, the leather handles are securely attached and designed for durability. While they are robust, we recommend carrying the basket by the base if you are transporting heavier items to ensure the longevity of the woven structure.

Because each basket is individually handwoven from natural reed, there will be slight variations in the weave pattern and the tone of the materials. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure that your specific piece is one-of-a-kind.
