The piece features a simplified sculptural hen silhouette with elongated tail, integrated body basket, and woven open-top construction. Its darker finish and more minimal form distinguish it from the brighter folk-style examples, giving it a quieter and more graphic presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe basket is tightly woven with visible vertical rib construction and rounded organic shaping characteristic of Chinese decorative basketry produced during the 1970s. The stylized hen form, exaggerated tail, and compact proportions connect the piece to traditional rural and kitchen motifs often associated with abundance, domesticity, and everyday craftsmanship. The dark lacquered tone gives the surface depth and a slightly more sophisticated decorative quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToday, this vintage wicker hen basket works beautifully as a tabletop object, fruit basket, shelf sculpture, or kitchen accent. Its sculptural silhouette and monochromatic dark finish allow it to integrate easily into rustic, folk art, cottage, primitive, farmhouse, or eclectic interiors while still functioning as a useful woven container.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1stDibs reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e LU10969250189112\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeriod:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-20th Century\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1970\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rattan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechniques:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-Crafted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rustic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e H 5 × W 3.1 × D 7 IN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e GOOD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Regiment of Love","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50273665581295,"sku":"LU10969250189112","price":198.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/0613\/7327\/files\/f_50189112_1779315769697_bg_processed.jpg?v=1785434824","url":"https:\/\/regimentoflove.com\/products\/vintage-chinese-wicker-hen-basket-handwoven-rattan-1970s-50189112","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
