TAO is a beautifully aged Chinese antique rice basket dating to around 1920, handcrafted from woven willow with a solid wooden handle and original black Chinese characters painted on each side. These markings would once have identified the owner, workshop, or contents, adding an authentic sense of history and individuality to the piece.

With its warm natural tones and timeworn texture, TAO works beautifully styled with dried flowers, blankets, or kindling. It is an easy way to bring depth, character, and a collected feel into interiors while celebrating the charm of handmade rural Chinese craftsmanship.
