<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 9601451, member: 8267"]Does anyone know where this style of basket comes from? I have seen 2 now in my internet wanderings, but can't determine their origin. The base appears to be a separate piece, woven with a standard twining technique. (It looks somewhat similar to the ubiquitous Chinese trinket baskets/boxes.) The sides appear to be worked over a stiff framework, using a teneriffe style of technique with raffia or similar soft fiber. Any suggestions?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]465764[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]465766[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
