Original 1950s Vintage Unusual Wicker Picnic Set/Basket
We love this unusual vintage picnic basket in a traditional wicket basket. Inside is lined with an atomic print and the lid houses 4 plastic side plates, 4 plastic saucers, 4 plastic teaspoons (degraded) and a stainless steel knife. Inside comprises 3 plastic teacups, a plastic food storage box, 4 screw lid containers (some labelled), a plastic cannister with tea leaves still in it and 2 boxes with stainless teal and black forks, knives, tablespoons and teaspoons. The plastic food/sandwich box has been obviously glued so would need to be lined if you wanted to use it. Outer case measures approx 15.5” x 11” x 5”. Generally in good vintage condition and so much retro appeal.
All in good condition - a stunning and collectable piece of history.

At My Vintage, we take time to carefully measure each item of vintage clothing so that you have the best chance of ensuring a good fit whenever you buy from us. We measure the clothing laid flat as the diagrams show below and for bust, chest, waist and hips we double the measurement. For example, if the waist measures 17" across when laid flat then this would equate to a 34" waist (17 x 2 = 34)
We use the measurements we collate to assign each item of vintage clothing with an approximate modern-day size. For example, a dress with a 34" bust, 28" waist and 34" hips would normally equate to a current UK size 10. The labels on vintage clothing can vary massively depending on country of origin and date of manufacture. Clothing sizes have changed over the years and from decade to decade we see alternative types of sizing as well as variations on the way measurements equate to dress sizes.
We always recommend that you double-check the measurements of the vintage clothing item you are interested in, ideally by measuring an item of clothing you already own and that fits well, and comparing these measurements. There can be variations due to the desired fit, shape and fabric of an item but our size guidelines are normally very accurate and take the stress out of buying vintage online.
