Gorgeous antique rare 1920's'Oracle' wicker car boot rack mounted picnic basket

Here we have a Gorgeous antique rare 1920's'Oracle' wicker picnic basket. This model was designed to be mounted into the running boards or car boot rack, likely a large luxury car such as a Rolls Royce or Bentley and probably was used as such going by the estate that this came from! Contains two of the original tins. One of these is duller than the other, both have a few areas of surface oxidation inside which would clean up easily. The basket is in amazing overall condition,, no decay, old worm or damage.

Has some light age related wear here & there, which all adds to it's character in my opinion, I'll be sad to see this one go! Approximately 14.5" tall, 17.75" wide, 9.5 deep. The two nickel coated tins are 7" x 5.25" x 5 tall. Please study the photos carefully as they provide the best description. Where available please feel free to make a sensible offer above the starting price!
