A miniature laundry basket in original unfinished surface.
A tapered body consisting of inconsistent width weavers rests slightly elevated from the ground via four small hand carved wooden feet each made of white oak and woven into the body. A lightly open weave bottom comprises its base and serves structurally as the foundation for each vertical stanner. 
Rim work consists of two hand carved ribs, each featuring tapered lap joints and are secured with a single coiled rim wrapping. 
Condition remains superb, showcasing a high quality oxidized color from age and retains superb surface elements with patina.
A far above average example of basketry craftsmanship in charming form. 
New England origin. Ca. 1900. 7L" x 6W" x 4 1/4"T.
