Era: Vintage
Origin: France
Material: Wood
Dimensions: 18” L × 16” H including handle
DESCRIPTION
A wonderfully rustic French wooden trug, sourced in France and beautifully marked by years of use. Its simple utilitarian form is made especially striking by the deep, darkened wood patina, worn surfaces, and traces of old red paint still visible along the front.
The tall bentwood handle and angular sides give the piece a sculptural quality, while the irregularities, old nails, weathering, and softened edges speak to its working past. The faint remnants of red paint are particularly charming—perhaps once part of an old marking or lettering, though its original purpose is unknown.
A beautiful piece displayed on its own or used to hold linens, dried branches, books, or other collected objects.
THE DETAILS
+Origin: Vintage
+Collection: Le Décor
+Material: Wood
+Dimensions: 18” L × 16” H including handle
CONDITION
Vintage condition with significant age-related wear and patina throughout, consistent with its utilitarian history. There is a visible split in the wood as photographed, as well as some separation along the wooden handle near the original nails. Both areas remain stable, and the trug is sturdy. Surface wear, discoloration, old nail holes, scratches, and irregularities are present throughout and contribute to the character of the piece.
