Vintage Small Metal Wire Basket

This is a small vintage metal wire basket. We find these rustic metal buckets all over the area due to all the clamming that occurs at New England beaches. This one is a nice, smaller example....Standing at 6 3/4" tall it measures 10" in diameter at top rim exclusive of handle hinge. Has a wire handle approximately 4 3/4".

The clamming basket has a nice amount of rust, just enough to give it a wonderful patina.

I use these baskets to hold hand towels and golf balls. A nice addition to the rustic decor and very useful.
