#8 Basket Shallow Nesting Basket #1948

These baskets were originally called the Nesting Basket. After noticing that they reminded me of the old fashioned numbered crocks I collect, we decided to rename them in a similar fashion. The old crocks are numbered to indicate their capacity. The larger the number, the bigger the crock. We have decided to do the same with these baskets. The larger the number, the larger the base of the basket. The number indicates the width (in inches) of the base of the basket. As before, these baskets are created so that they can be nested inside each other. a #4 nestles inside a #6 which fits inside a #8 and they all can comfortably settle inside a #10. This will allow us to continue working on new sizes to add to your collection of these baskets.  This is #8 Shallow Nesting Basket  #1948 which was handmade here at 1840 Farm on June 10, 2023. This basket stands 2.25 inches tall and the diameter of the top opening is approximately 8.5 inches wide. This basket was made using solid and print fabri
