I have a pretty 12 inch lidded basket with tall handle of unknown origin.
It has a tall handle with a dark pattern on it.
There is also a geometric medium tan pattern on the sides of the basket.
Sure wouldn't hold water!

It's called a "Buka" basket, and is from Papua New Guinea, north of Australia.

Thank you so much! I've wonder about this one for a number of years!
