French Wicker Tray This vintage French wicker tray originates from a traditional bakery where it served for displaying fresh pastries and artisanal cheeses. Dating from the mid-20th century, this piece represents authentic French country craftsmanship and functional design from the era of small village bakeries. The construction features hand-woven rattan with a distinctive braided border that demonstrates skilled French basket-making techniques. The natural honey-colored finish and tight weave pattern reflect quality materials and traditional methods. The rectangular form shows the classic proportions favored by French bakers for practical display purposes. The tray measures 41cm x 26cm (16.1" x 10.2") and displays authentic signs of age and use consistent with its bakery heritage. One handle shows minor damage but remains functional and stable, adding to the genuine vintage character of this French wicker tray. The overall condition reflects decades of practical use in commercial food service. This piece functions well for serving appetizers, displaying bread, or as a decorative accent in farmhouse or French country interiors. It represents solid value for collectors of French kitchenware and commercial bakery equipment from the traditional period. 95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.
