Antique Taghkanic Taconic Basket Large Painted Без бренда
Характеристики
This is a fabulous ,authentic,Antique, Taconic, Taghkanic basket , sometimes called bushwacker basket, made in upstate New York . It’s very old and has antique markings ( see pictures) indicating 1800s. This beautiful black painted basket is in wonderful condition with only a few broken splints commensurate with its age. There are areas of paint wear which serve to display the wonderful patina of a rose/ salmon color where splints were dyed from the paint. I believe it may have had a light satin glaze coat added at some point to aid in preservation.. it has double slashed wide rim, double notched, hand carved bentwood handle and pushed up bottom which are all characteristics of authentic Taghkanic baskets. It has a wonderful wrapped foot ring for added stability which is fully intact.
