KEEPING AMERICA ON TOP: WHOM YOU KNOW CELEBRATES AMERICAN STYLE INTELLIGENCE and EXCELLENCE WITH THE PETERBORO BASKET COMPANY FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE

Peterboro Basket Company is the oldest basket manufacturer in the United States; they have been in business since 1854. All baskets are made in Southern New Hampshire in a town called Peterborough. The baskets are made with Appalachian Ash Wood, which is the same wood used to make baseball bats and snowshoes. Therefore, they are extremely durable! You can easily put 50 lbs of weight in one of these baskets and it will hold with no problem. Peterboro Basket Company offers a wide selection of baskets to use in your everyday life or give someone as a thoughtful gift.  We tried out two of them and think each of these would make fabulous gifts this Christmas season and also are great for organizing your own Chez Peachy with a patriotic flair!  Total quality, these are the most well-made baskets we've ever seen.
Of course you know we are thrilled that every basket they sell is a 100%-made-in-the-USA product, and this new storage basket is another example of that patriotic pride. A miniature American flag is front and center on the smooth wood lid that’s attached to the basket using a thick leather hinge and brass hardware. Two braided leather handles are riveted to the basket to withstand years of carrying heavy loads.  The flag itself is a stunning design that is not only beautiful but also durable.

Its ample size makes the American Storage Basket perfect for keeping all sorts of things safely tucked away. So at this price, you might want to consider ordering more than one!
