Hubert OVAL CHIP WOOD TOBACCO BASKET - 23"L X 1 39869

What is a tobacco basket? Back in the nineteenth century, they were used to keep tobacco off the floor while storing the tobacco leaves in the warehouse, and also to transport tobacco to the local markets. First made in Kentucky, North Carolina became the primary producer of tobacco baskets towards the end of the century. In the twenty-first century however, their original function has been largely diminished, and you are more likely to encounter a tobacco basket in an antique shop, or as a decorative device in people's homes. Many homeowners use tobacco baskets to display flower arrangements, memorabilia or other miscellaneous items to enhance the aesthetics of their home.
