SOLD Beautifully Weathered and Tenderly Mended Old Painted Wooden Basket Vyt Plus a great short woodenA much weathered and worn old farm apple basket, with much aged red paint around the top and bottom rims, which I find super beautiful in all of its delicacy now. With an old mend on one side wire stretched on the diagonal from one nail to another, where the crossing strips of wood were lost. A bit fragile, and all sorts of wonky, but charming. Approx 7 1 4" across at top x 5 7 8" tall. Stable but one wants to be a bit gentle with it.
