Mid-20th Century Massive Hand-Woven Lidded American Basket-Continuous Handles

About the Item

The Massive Mid 20th Century Basket was part of a collection of baskets found in the original basket weaving community where it was originally woven. The pieces had been woven by a weaving group who stored the pieces in a warehouse and left them, never used and protected until very recently when they were found by a relative. this massive piece has continuous handles which create a beautiful detail. Not a single broken piece exists on the basket.
