The Winco PWBN-12B is a rectangular woven basket in natural-colored polypropylene with handles, sized 12 x 8 x 3 inches for tableside bread service, salad bar baguette display, and any presentation that wants the look of real woven basketry without the maintenance.

Why Polypropylene Over Real Basketry

Real woven baskets (wicker, rattan, bamboo) look beautiful but absorb moisture, harbor crumbs, and develop musty smells over time. Most health departments will not approve them for direct food contact in commercial kitchens. Polypropylene woven baskets give you the same visual but are dishwasher-safe, BPA-free, and pass NSF food-contact requirements.

Sizing

12 x 8 inches is the sweet spot for tableside bread baskets in casual dining and bistros - large enough to hold a sliced baguette or a half-dozen rolls, small enough to fit on a 4-top without dominating the table. The 3-inch depth keeps bread visible without burying it.

Care

Dishwasher safe. Line with a cloth napkin for white-tablecloth presentation, or serve directly for casual dining. Handles let servers carry without obstructing the basket's contents.
