Thai Bamboo Folk Art Footed Basket – Hand-Woven Split Reed Planter

A sculptural Bamboo Folk Art split-reed basket from Thailand, hand-woven with diagonally plaited strips that create a bold chevron pattern. The body is lashed with rattan, crowned by a wrapped rim, and raised on pegged feet—turning a humble storage vessel into a striking Asian folk art statement. Use it as a rustic planter, blanket bin, or catch-all for toys and throws.
