French Galvanised Fruit Picking Basket

A rustic galvanised metal fruit picking basket, likely French and dating from the 1960s–70s, designed for harvesting and rinsing fruit in a single practical step.

The basket has a simple industrial form with open wire construction, allowing water and debris to drain easily while fruit is collected. The galvanised surface shows signs of age and use, with a naturally worn finish that enhances its utilitarian character.

Originally intended for agricultural use, these baskets now work beautifully as decorative storage pieces within kitchens, pantries or retail interiors, and can also be used for practical storage or display.

In good vintage condition with wear consistent with age and use.
