This scalloped aluminum basket with fine detailed handle may be made from what they call “hammered aluminum.” It has a beautiful rose design circa 1950′s-1960′s.

Measures 8 inches in diameter stands 1 1/2 inches tall and is 5 3/4 inches to the handle. Good vintage condition. No dents or major scratches but normal wear inside the basket. Valued from $20-29 we offer this crafted basket for only $15.

Aluminum items are a distinct art form with hands-on craftsmanship. As aluminum cannot be welded handles and bases are applied with aluminum rivets by hand. Each piece is carefully designed in the detailed patterns that are offered. Even though there has been an increase on pricing of aluminumware in the past fifteen years many sellers are still oblivious to its value.
