[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 614951, member: 301"]The braided handle treatment, and plaited Gods Eye are unusual for an older basket. [ATTACH=full]180375[/ATTACH] Some of these do have wrapped handles.... but they're plaited, or simply wrapped. [ATTACH=full]180376[/ATTACH] Your basket looks like white ash , and has a nice size and cover...but no antique age. here's another braided handle....not as fine as yours... [ATTACH=full]180377[/ATTACH] which is said to be vintage......so the seller has no idea.... with baskets like these the more ribs, the better.... [ATTACH=full]180382[/ATTACH] here's a nice antique one......... I would suspect your basket is maybe 30 years old , give or take 10 years... Cleaning dust with a soft brush....is all I would recommend. Here are a couple of mine..... [ATTACH=full]180383[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
