This is an antique Japanese finely woven brass basket with a lid. I am not sure what it was used for. I have always been curious. If any one can enlighten me, I would appreciate it.My mother owned it for 50 years and it was old when she purchased it. It has a floral scene with a bird on the top of the lid, and it has a floral scene inside of the basket. The weaving is done with extremely fine brass wire. The lid fits snuggly. The color is more yellow in person. My camera seems to wash out the brass tone.The handles have some minor bending. Thanks for looking. Feel free to asquestions.SHIPPING TO AZ AND THE WEST COAST IS THIRTEEN DOLLARS EXTRA. Shipping includes insurance.
