My basket arrived safely. It is beautiful. I will be sure to order more in the future!!! Chetta
I received my basket last week. Your website said exactly as shown in image but I was a bit skeptical until it arrived. And YES! It is the exact same one shown on your website. It's not only beautiful, it's also just what I've been needing. This basket will serve me well at farmers' markets, picnic outings, and many everyday errands. I am pleased. Carla
