Medium Oval Easter Basket | Natural Decorative Amish Woven Wicker

• Handcrafted Quality: Rattan reed handwoven over a solid wood bottom, with one bent wood handle arched over the middle and wrapped in a spiral of reed, by an Old Order Amish family on the Iowa-Missouri border, and signed by the weaver who made it.
• The Child's Size: 14 x 10 1/2 inches, 6 1/4 inches deep and 15 1/2 inches to the top of the handle: a child's Easter basket for years, and roomy enough for a grown-up's.
• The Handle Stays Up: The handle is fixed in place, and the 15 1/2 inches are measured to the top of it. The woven basket itself is 6 1/4 inches deep.
• Measures: 14" x 10 1/2" x 15 1/2" tall, to the top of the handle. Contents not included.
• Three Trim Colors: Choose Plain, Wine & Blue, or Wine & Green. The color is woven in as dyed reed, not painted on, and on the plain finish the stain takes to each piece of wood in its own way.
• Optional Extras: Two liners are sewn for this basket and sold right on this page: a plain liner in cream, wine, blue or green, and a pastel liner in pink, purple, yellow or emerald, each tied in with two bonnet ties. An engraved solid brass plate and protective feet are optional too. The basket ships empty, with no liner, grass or eggs.
• American Heritage: Handwoven in the USA and signed by the Amish weaver who made it. Backed by our lifetime guarantee, with free shipping and no-questions returns on every order.

It is the oval, egg-shaped Easter basket, and it carries a child's Easter or a grown-up's. Shauna wrote, "it's the perfect size for my kids," and Karen fills them for her grown children: "these ones are being filled not only for my kids but their spouse as well." Abby added a liner: "No need for messy grass with these absolutely perfect liners."

Until 2021 this basket was sold as the Large Oval Easter Basket. The size names moved down a step that year and the baskets kept their measurements, so a large oval bought before then is this basket. The Medium Round Easter Basket is the same depth at 12 1/2 inches across; the Small Oval is 12 x 9 and today's Large Oval 17 x 13. The sizes are the outside of the rim.

After Easter it goes to work. Tracie wrote, "They make great storage for the family the rest of the year and I borrow them back to fill at Easter." Derek wrote, "It sets on my table in the living room and gets a ton of compliments." The engraved brass plate takes a name, a date or a short line, up to 22 characters on each of two lines, and is screwed to the front band with two small brass screws before the basket ships. A plate can also be ordered on its own later, screws included, for a basket you already have. Every size with the plate is on the personalized Easter baskets page.

Sizes can sell out in the weeks before Easter; the notify-me button on this page emails you when the next one is ready in the Shipping Barn. An Old Order Amish family weaves it by hand on the Iowa-Missouri border, in the same community as the rest of our Easter baskets, and the weaver signs the bottom before it leaves the farm. Standard shipping is free, and rush delivery is offered at checkout when the Easter week is close. It ships gift-ready, with no prices in the box, a free gift note at checkout, and a short letter about the family who wove it. Like every basket we sell, it carries our lifetime guarantee, and returns are no questions asked.

Measures: 14" x 10 1/2" x 15 1/2" tall
