History:

• The small apple crate harkens back to a time when orchards were a cornerstone of agricultural communities. As apples ripened, they were carefully harvested and placed in these crates. Once filled to the brim, these crates were stacked high and transported to markets or storage facilities, ensuring the fruits reached consumers in pristine condition.

2. Kitchen Organisation: In the kitchen, these crates can be a stylish way to organise fruits, vegetables, or spices. Hang them on the wall as unique open shelving or stack them for extra storage

3. Bathroom Organiser: Keep your bathroom essentials tidy by using the crate as a storage unit for towels, toiletries, or even as a rustic toilet paper holder
