This was my family favourite basket. It has been in the house for as long as I can remember. My mum bought it from a Filipino handicraft stall,about twenty years ago and it has been used for wedding,Christmas and whenever there is a need to contain something with. It is kind of special because of its intricate design, I think nowadays it will be expensive to buy something with that design. This basket is enduring too, even the colour doesn't really fade. I think it is a good buy and a definite keeper.
