Wicker Moses Basket
This is a charming vintage wicker Moses basket, likely dating to the mid-20th century. The basket features a classic woven construction with a sturdy handle for carrying. It is lined with a cream-coloured fabric, featuring a delicate embroidered pattern, providing a soft and comfortable interior for a baby. The basket’s design suggests it was intended for use as a portable bed for infants, offering a safe and cosy space for rest.
Condition and Collectibility
The basket presents with signs of age and use, consistent with its vintage nature. The wicker shows some wear and minor imperfections, and the lining exhibits some discolouration and wear. Despite these signs of age, the basket remains structurally sound and retains its original charm. This piece would appeal to collectors of vintage nursery items or those seeking a unique and decorative piece for a nursery or display.
