Bread Basket - Prototype

[DWSUDEKUM]

I have seen and made other peoples designs for this kind of basket and while I wanted something similar ( in concept at least ) I did not want to copy their work. 

Cut from 1/2 in pine.  The dowels are poplar stained a mahogany.  Finished with a satin lacquer.  I know ... I know not a whole lot of scrolling. . . . yet.  The end cap pieces have enough room for some design work.  I have not yet decided what I need to put there.  The basket is 10 1/2" long x almost 6" wide.

I like the constricting dowel rods

That is a great design!!       Simple but easy and very pleasing to the eye. You can leave it like it is or cut fruit or grains in the ends. There is just so much you could do with this simple design it is only limited by your imagination. Great job on this one.   :thumbs:

You could scroll bread in the ends to make it a bread basket just a thought.
