Farmhouse Egg Basket — Metal Gathering & Countertop Holder
Product description
Durable rust-resistant construction: Built from thick iron wire with a dark baked-on finish, this egg basket resists corrosion and keeps its shape during daily farm use. Four reinforced feet support the base to help protect eggs from cracking and provide stability when set down. The open design accommodates chicken, quail, duck and goose eggs, making it a reliable choice for backyard poultry keepers.
Generous round capacity and dimensions: The basket measures 7.87"D × 7.87"W × 5.1"H, with an inner diameter of approximately 6 inches. Its roomy wire body can hold roughly 30–40 small to medium eggs or more than 18 extra-large eggs without crowding. The airy wire construction lets you drop eggs in or lift them out quickly, ideal for kitchen counters, dining room tables or pantry shelves while keeping eggs visible and organized.
Integrated ergonomic metal handle: A single-piece metal wire handle is built into the basket for secure, one-handed transport from coop to kitchen. The grip is designed to resist slipping and stays tight and durable after repeated use, avoiding the fragility seen with some wooden-handled designs.
Decorative fabric mat included: A rustic-style cloth mat is supplied with the basket to sit underneath for added stability and to enhance farmhouse-style decor. Use it on counters, dining tables or seasonal displays (Easter, weddings, Halloween) to give the basket a finished, homey look that’s kid- and family-friendly.
Versatile, space-saving organizer: Beyond collecting eggs, this open wire basket works well for storing potatoes, fruit, vegetables, herbs, snacks or tea and coffee items. It complements farmhouse, traditional and modern kitchens and pantries and makes a thoughtful gift for chicken keepers or new homeowners.

VerdictA durable, retro-style metal egg basket that performs as both a practical gathering tool and attractive countertop display.

Charming and Practical
Pretty basket that holds many eggs. I put 18 extra-large eggs in it and still had space. Feels sturdy and the pad underneath is a helpful touch.

Smaller Than I Hoped
Gave it 3.5 stars. Very cute. I got 35 medium eggs in it—maybe 40 small ones. Not flimsy. I tossed the mat. One leg is slightly short so it rocks; perhaps the mat was meant to fix that. Still looks nice in my kitchen.

Compact and Capable
So cute and arrived quickly. Well packaged. Light enough to carry with one hand and the pad helps keep things from slipping while gathering eggs.
