$365. 

Wood utility carrier with original paint and a graceful scalloped edge. It is difficult to say for certain what was its intended use.

It would serve well to hold plants or magazines, for instance. Measures 15" across; 11 1/2" deep and 9" tall to the top of the handle. Very good, all original condition.
