Looks like a basket to me, perhaps specifically a "winnowing basket" but with many more uses than simply winnowing grain. USD $2.50 is a great price! Hope you & your family feel better soon! 💜
I think you're right, but I wasn't confident with the word "basket," wondering if a basket has to have a wall or sides 😉. Reminds me of several years ago when I flew to the USA to work with an old friend on his farm for several months. I hadn't been around much English speaking for several years when I arrived at the airport in Oregon, and on the way back to his farm I was struggling with vocabulary.
We passed a mountain that was being clearcut by loggers, and I wanted to ask about it, but didn't have the words. I never verbalized anything, but as we passed the mountain, I was thinking "tree mining..........no, practicing forestry..........., no, tree-cutting.......logging, no," then I just gave up because we had passed the mountain already. It always takes 24-48 hrs for that side of my brain to normalize again, but the first couple of hours I don't even feel like a native English speaker in my own country 😂.
