Description

  • Handcrafted Quality: Rattan reed handwoven over a wood bottom in a low oval with a wrapped hardwood rim, by an Old Order Amish family on the Iowa-Missouri border, and signed by the weaver who made it.
  • The Family Supper Size: 13 1/2 x 6 1/2 inches at the rim and 4 1/4 inches tall: six to eight rolls, a batch of biscuits or a sliced loaf.
  • How The Warming Works: Add the pad and the cover from this page and the rolls stay warm through second helpings; without them it is the bread basket for the everyday table. This is the one size in the family that takes an engraved brass plate.
  • Measures: 13 1/2" x 6 1/2" x 4 1/4" tall. Contents not included.
  • Three Trim Colors: Choose Plain, Wine & Blue, or Wine & Green. The color is woven in as dyed reed, not painted on, and on the plain finish the stain takes to each piece of wood in its own way.
  • Optional Extras: The microwave warming pad, the hand-sewn cotton liner and the elastic-edged cloth cover are each optional and sold right on this page, with protective feet. The basket ships alone and is a bread basket without them. An engraved solid brass plate is offered on this size.
  • American Heritage: Handwoven in the USA and signed by the Amish weaver who made it. Backed by our lifetime guarantee, with free shipping and no-questions returns on every order.

"What a great idea a bread basket with a liner, a warmer, and a top to keep the heat in!!!" Laura wrote in 2025; she "picked the medium size because it is just right for a family and. Company!" Vicky's "The basket is beautiful and love the warming pad." Cynthia: "Love the beautiful basket, liner, and cover!"

The pad is a cloth pad filled with sand: three minutes in the microwave, then it lies in the bottom of the basket under the liner, the cover goes over the rolls, and they stay warm for up to 90 minutes. The liner and cover are pre-shrunk cotton broadcloth that machine wash and dry. Susanne added the plate and the feet: "The workmanship is amazing and the emblem looks perfect. The little feet are cute too!" Nancy chose the blue trim, which "really shows up weave beautifully", and Mary "ordered these for my 4 adult married children as Christmas gifts".

The sizes are the outside of the rim. For the breakfast table, the Small Bread Warming Basket at 10 1/2 x 5 1/2; for a French loaf or a dozen rolls, the Large at 16 1/2 x 7 1/2; all three, the 3-Piece Set. The Medium Warmer 4-Piece Set is this basket with the pad, liner and cover in one box. The rest are on the bread warming baskets page.

An Old Order Amish family weaves it by hand on the Iowa-Missouri border, in the same community as the rest of our kitchen baskets, and the weaver signs the bottom before it leaves the farm. Standard shipping is free, and rush delivery is offered at checkout when a birthday or Christmas is close. It ships gift-ready, with no prices in the box, a free gift note at checkout, and a short letter about the family who wove it. Like every basket we sell, it carries our lifetime guarantee, and returns are no questions asked.
