#4 Basket #2007

This is Small Standard Nesting Basket #2007 which was handmade here at 1840 Farm on October 25, 2024.  This basket features a pretty collection of fall inspired fabrics including solids and patterns in shades of tan, brown, orange, yellow, and green. 

This basket is stitched together with pumpkin pie colored zigzag stitching. This basket stands 2 inches tall and the diameter of the top opening is approximately 5.5 inches wide.

All of our coiled fabric baskets are made by hand at 1840 Farm.  Each fabric strip is torn by hand before being combined with other complimentary fabrics and then wrapped around a length of cording, joining the fabrics as we go.  The fabric wrapped cord is then coiled and stitched together using a zigzag stitch on my sewing machine.  I continue to wrap the coil and shape the basket as it is stitched, ending each one in our trademark spiral design. 

This basket is part of our 1840 Farm Basket Collection.  Each basket in the Collection comes with a hand signed product tag that includes the date that the basket was finished. 

Our fabric baskets can be cleaned by spot washing or in the gentle cycle of your washing machine.  Gently reshape the basket while still damp and allow to air dry.  Overturning the damp basket on top of a bowl will ensure that it retains its shape while drying.

Other items shown in the photographs are not included in the sale price. Those items were used for photographic purposes only. Their use was intended to show the utility and various uses of the item.
