About the Item

Made in France in the nineteenth century, this grape hod is a vessel of the type used during the wine harvest to carry picked grapes. The shaped form follows its working purpose, designed to be carried while gathering fruit in the vineyards of the French wine regions. Hods of this kind are now valued as decorative objects that carry the character and history of rural French agriculture. The vessel suits display in a kitchen, garden room, or dining area, where its form stands out as a sculptural object. It can be used to hold dried stems, foliage, or other objects, or displayed on its own as a rustic accent. Its association with the grape harvest gives it particular appeal in country and wine-themed interiors. As an authentic piece of agricultural equipment repurposed for decoration, the hod brings texture and working history to a room.
