Vintage Twined Basket by H Trester

Description

Vintage twined (couled?) basket by H Trester who wrote books on making baskets in the late 70's. It is gold color with brown and red designs. The material feels more like  yarn than a plant. There is a tag sewn onto the basket that says "Another Origianl by H Trester Phoenix Arizona", The basket is 7 1/2" Tall and 3" across the top. I see no damage.It was given to me by an elderly woman who could not remember how she got it.
