    How long do these take to make?

    Wow Such talent! I have one. I gave the other one away to my sister that was a little basket with a lid that had raffia accents on it. It was from the toyobe national forrest gift shop some thirty years ago. A little one about seven inches around was thirty dollars way back then. It is amazing the precision these are made with!

    Museum quality work... Just beautiful.

    These baskets are so incredibly gorgeous and I LOVE the antler handles. You should be able to sell these easily and get a good price for them. They are very lovely. Thanks for sharing. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
