    I found this beauty at Urban Ore today, along w/ some other cool things. this basket is 13 inches tall by 14 inches wide. It was covered w/ cobwebs and i just cleaned it off and waxed it. it appears to be in near-perfect condition and has a beautiful, natural patina to it. i think that this is from the around 1880-1900, but i'm not an expert. any info appreciated!

      thank you Radegunder and kyratango! i've been doing some research on it and it is pretty rare to find such a nice basket in perfect shape. it's a real beauty and has quite a bit of age too.
