I received my Zimbabwe Masterweave basket today in perfect condition (very nice packing job I might add). It's a beauty, a very nice addition to my growing collection. It now resides in a place of honor on a wall in my kitchen. This isn't my first purchase from you, and it certainly will not be the last! Thanks again. Michael
