Vintage wicker fishing creel, a handmade basket traditionally used by anglers to hold and preserve fish. It features woven wicker construction for ventilation, leather trim, and a shoulder strap for transport. The hinged lid includes a "off center hole," allowing fishermen to slip fish into the basket without fully opening the lid and releasing cold air. A sought after collectible or decorative home decor item with a rustic or "cottage-core" style.
