Large, Signed, Oval Nantucket Lightship Basket

Made entirely by hand, signed by the donor, this meticulously woven basket measures just over 20" long x 15" wide x 9.5" deep. Fine cane throughout, a smooth cherry wood base and neatly wrapped rim capture the 19th Century style created off Nantucket Island, Massachusetts. Durability to last a lifetime means you can stow magazines, fire kindling or present a dramatic floral arrangement…you decide.
