Circa 1900 Cherokee Indian Rivercane Miniature Basket Antique

Circa 1900 Cherokee Indian Rivercane Miniature Basket Antique

Circa

This is a great miniature Cherokee rivercane basket . It measures 3″ wide x 2.5″ tall .
Great rust , tan and dark brown dyed weavers . Some call this a berry basket , some say seed basket . Probably from the North Carolina area .
The condition overall is very good , with one small area of loss near the rim that includes 1 piece of rim wrap and about 4 weavers .
Total area of the spot is about  5/8″ .  I find no other breaks .
Great aged patina , even coloring , no faded spots .  Displays great !
A great addition to any collection .  Please check out all the photos .
The low starting price is not a statement of value here , it’s just a place to start to give everyone a chance to bid !
No reserve ! Payment is due within 48 hrs. of ( this keeps shipping timely !) With soaring fuel costs I can’t make trips to town every day , and since I don’t live next door to the post Office I have to schedule shipping closely . I accept Pay-Pal payments . Most items ship Priority mail . ( Heavy items or things longer than 36″ , usually ship Parcel Post  or UPS Ground , mostly depending on box size ) NOTE  * If I have set a flat shipping cost on an auction , it’s because I’m covering part of the shipping for you to try to keep your cost down .* Please check your shipping rate before you bid . I don’t make the rates the Post Office does . ( I try to get you the best rate possible , which my not always be Priority mail ) .  I take great pains with packing , & there are “No extra packing charges or handling fees ” . In today ‘s economy , packing material expenses are a big chunk of operating costs along with insurance costs . So far , I’ve not had to pass that expense along to my customers . Please don’t trivialize these efforts by leaving me less than a ” 5 ” for shipping .  I strive for 100% customer satisfaction .
Please ask questions prior to bidding .

If you have a special need , I try to accomodate . All items I sell are pre-owned , vintage or antique . To be compliant with website’s new return policy , my listings will now be “All Sales Final” , but I will still make things right , should there be a ” grave ” mistake in my listing .
I have a non-smoking house , but since items are pre-owned , I can’t vouch for where they have been . I do try to let you know if there is anything ” out of the ordinary” with an item . Please be generous with your detailed seller ratings . If you feel I’ve earned anything less than a “5” , please let me know , I will try to work it out with you . These ratings help our website standings , and keep us alive on here . So , if you liked your transaction & want to be able to shop with us again  , than please leave a 5 star rating .
