Lombok Coiled Frog Basket
7.5" High x 4.25" Diameter
This handwoven coiled rattan piece is made of rattan, a wild palm vine, known for its  idurability. The tough, inner core of the vine is coiled to form the main superstructure of a basket, while the outer skin is peeled off in fine, flexible strips for weaving the covering coils of the basket together. It is a common practice in Lombnok to combine the coiled basket weaving with hand carved wood figures or creatures. Here we have a frog handle.
A charming place to store your treasures.
