Beautiful basket…

I purchased this as a Christmas gift. This basket is so cool! I love how the handle is connected and the weaving is beautiful. It’s not hard like wicker baskets are (which I love) and it’s very big. It can be used for so many things. It won’t be the last basket I buy, they are so gorgeous.
