egptian crate

my wife has loved this when she was here. egyptian style wooden crate for the groceries in the market. it's hand made. looking at the labor on this thing with all the little holes and each individual stick placed one by one, it would have belonged anywhere else but the grocery store. when I saw it again, I offered to buy one from the store owner. he was happy to sell one. labor is so cheap in this country, he made a profit.
