10” Early Painted 2-Color Buttocks Basket

Price: 275

Sold by West Pelham Antiques

An early and very nicely painted Buttocks Basket in green/yellow. The basket is 10” in diameter at the top (approx. 12” wide) and 6” high; height to the handle is about 11”. Excellent condition with nice, original dry-painted surface. The basket it very firm and there are no breaks, holes, etc. About as nice a “working basket” as you will find. It probably dates to the early 20th century, perhaps a bit older.
