    This basket is from the collection of my former mother-in-law, Eleanor Wolters.  Eleanor had an extensive collection of artifacts--masks, scuptures, baskets--from many countries and ethnicities. She was an award-winning artist and understood the value of properly caring for artifacts and artwork.  Many of the baskets I am listing on eBay are in excellent condition because of this care.
    I will discount prices for multiple purchases and, combine shipping when possible.
    Please ask questions before you purchase.  Thanks for looking!

    While I am not an expert in most of the categories I list in, I do a lot of research, and seek opinions and information from others who are.   I endeavor to make the Descriptions accurate and honest with good photo representations.  I won't post a listing until I've completed my due diligence to the best of my ability, but there still may be an error from time to time.  As with all VINTAGE items there will be some wear from age, if not use, and it should not be regarded as a failure on my part to describe every aspect of wear which may not be mentioned.  Should you have a concern regarding an item you purchased, please contact me before leaving Negative or Neutral Feedback.  I will do my very best to resolve the situation and earn your Positive FB, which is important to me and my success on eBay.
