This is something different than we’ve shown before.  I found a couple glass baskets and they got put aside in my get-listed box and tonight I finally got around to listing this one.

This is a classic shape, flared nicely with a scalloped rim and V-shaped design on the handle.  This is from Duncan Miller and this shap is called a tavern basket.  Don’t ask why it’s a tavern basket as it seems too nice to be in a smoky 1930s  bar!  (I’m visualizing the bar scene in Casablanca.  Play it again… Oops! there goes the basket!)

I also wanted to announce that I joined the Glass and Pottery Sellers Co-op store at www.GlassandPotteryCo-op.com.  If you browse eBay you may have seen the Glass and Pottery Sellers Association, GPSA, logo on some sellers’ listings.  This is a group that has high standards for members around accurate descriptions, customer service, fair shipping costs, good photos, and I’ve been a member for several years.  The co-op started last year but I was not able to join then due to family commitments.

If you want to see this, please click the basket photo and it will take you to the store listing.  I’m also experimenting with the button to add this to your shopping cart directly from here, but this is new to me so I’m not positive it will work.  If you do want to purchase this, please try the little cart button below, but also please drop me an email at Kathy@glassandpotteryco-op.com just in case this techy stuff doesn’t work the way it’s supposed to!
