Just got this today. The colors on the fruit and leaves really stands out on the amber glass and thorn handle. The basket has applied strawberry and leaves on both sides.
Fortunately, it only has damage on ONE side, so it displays perfectly with the damage on the back side.
Nice polished pontil on the bottom.
love all these fruity pieces can't believe it was 5 years ago I posted on e here on CW !
I have another lovely one that Vetraio gave me awhile back will take a photo some time and post .
Thanks marty!
Please give me a heads up when you post yours-- I am a huge fan of these.

Love the strawberry decor, that's beautiful glass!
Thanks katherine-- appreciate you looking. I like all of the applied fruit.
I am partial to the applied cherries-- they got me started collecting art glass over 20 years ago!

This is so pretty - I love the strawberries on the basket; you don't see them very often. It is very summery!
Thanks michelle-- I appreciate you looking and commenting.

Very Nice Scott! I love the pure opalescent Amber instead of the usual Custard or Milk Glass, what is the sizes of this lovely basket?
The basket itself is about 5 1/2" X 4" and the handle extends up about 3 1/2".
Most of my examples with fruit have the milk glass base-- this one is a nice change.
