This unique basket is in good vintage condition consistent with age and usage. The handle can be easily moved from one side to the other. No loose or missing pieces. There is a patina from tarnish and it has an unaltered finish. It could be polished easily if you prefer a bright and shiny brass. It could be used as a plant holder, floral arrangement, hand towels, or ornaments. Measures approximately: 11 1/2” height (including handle), 7 1/2” height (basket), 7” across the top, 5 1/2” across bottom. Weighs approximately: 1.9 pounds (prior to packaging) Most of my items are previously owned, used, and loved. While I do my best to describe each item accurately, I do occasionally miss things. For complete details, please look closely at the photos. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to message me before making your purchase.
