Vintage Nantucket Basket Purse with Scrimshaw-Style Medallion
A timeless example of Nantucket craftsmanship, this handwoven Friendship Basket purse is woven from warm honey-colored rattan over a traditional mold and finished with a classic swing handle. The hinged lid features an oval plaque with a scrimshaw-style harbor scene depicting a tall ship under full sail passing a lighthouse, with "Nantucket" elegantly displayed above. Complete with bone-look handle mounts and a carved peg closure, each basket carries the beautiful patina and character of age. Available in both a full-size purse and a petite collectible version, these one-of-a-kind baskets are equally suited for display or occasional use.
