Large metal harvesting pan 50s

It is a very large old metal basket that we found there. Dedicated to the harvest of potatoes in picardy in the 30s, it retired a long time ago. It is in its juice. The rust that lines it has played its role giving it a superb patina. It can resume service in its initial function because time has not had a hold on its robustness. But with its extraordinary dimensions, its potential for decoration and diversion is endless... With its industrial style in devil this raw basket of formwork will make a sorting basket with bottle or paper in a perfect factory spirit. You can pile stuffed animals in a child's room, or make it the original setting of a great dame-jeanne. The one in the photo is a 30-liter model and there is still space! The metal structure is almost intact. Only a very small piece of iron is missing (see photo). Height with handle: 40 cm. Base diameter: 33 cm. High diameter: 50 cm.
