Circa Late 19th Century. This Finely Hand Woven Basket has a Steam Bent Handle and Top Rim that Appear to be Made Out of Oak. It was Most Likely Made in the Northern New England or Up State New York Region. It has an Absolutely Beautiful Allover Original Naturally Aged Uniform Color and Patina. The Basket has Become Slightly Out of Shape Over the Years - Has Developed a Slight Lean - Slant but Note That it Alters Depending on the Viewing Angle - As Displayed. A Cosmetic Remedy For Viewing Options Would be to Place a Prop - "Shim" Underneath The Basket Between the Bottom and the Surface That It Will Be Placed - Displayed On.
It Measures Overall 12 inches Tall Including the Handle x 11 inches Long x 10 1/2 inches Wide.
It Measures Between 7 inches and 6 inches Tall at the Top Rim ( Because of the Slant ).

PLEASE NOTE That Due to to the Delicate Nature of This Basket it will Need Special Packing so I I Will Not Able to Offer a Combined Shipping Discount Option on This Item. See less
