The basket is 17” by 12” by 8” tall, not counting the carved handle. If you count the handle, it is 14” tall.
The jar is 8 ½” tall and about 5 ½” at the belly.
Both pieces are in nice condition. Think of this auction as a “Primitive Collector’s Starter Kit.” The handle of the basket is carved into a shape comfortable in your hand, and it is secured to the sides of the basket by a wedge-shaped notch supporting the “x bound” rim.
