This authentic 1998 Longaberger handwoven basket features the classic maple‑tone splint weave, reinforced wooden rim, and dual swing handles secured with metal rivets.
It is a small gathering / market‑style basket make.
The underside includes the Longaberger Baskets® Handwoven Dresden, Ohio USA stamp along with the weaver’s initials, confirming its handcrafted origin.
The basket measures approximately 14.25" long × 9.75" wide × 4" deep, and 8.5" tall with the handles fully upright. It weighs 15.7 ounces and has the sturdy, tight weave Longaberger collectors expect.
Condition is very good for its age, with minor staining on one end and light white paint transfer on the handles—neither of which detract from display or use. The wood retains its warm tone and the handles move smoothly.
A beautiful, functional piece ideal for décor, storage, display, or adding to a Longaberger collection.
