F&M Small Hamper Basket
This lot is a small woven hamper basket bearing the stencilled marking F&M across its front panel. Its rectangular body is woven in a light tan tone, with a hinged lid and a braided carry handle set into the top.
The basket is finished with two brown leather straps and brass buckles on the lid, which secure the top to the body. Leather tabs are also visible at the base and the sides, and the corners are bound with wrapped weaving. The F&M lettering appears in black, applied directly to the weave. The basket has a compact, practical form suited to picnic or storage use.
Condition and Collectability
The basket presents with visible weave and tan finish across its front, back and lid, and the leather straps and brass buckles appear to be present. The stencilled F&M marking is clear on the front panel. Lot is offered as seen in the photographs, and interior condition and fittings have not been verified. Prospective buyers may be interested in this piece as a small, marked hamper basket with its original leather and brass hardware visible.
