“Very nice and well made”

A great big basket, in a tight weave which I really like for sturdiness. The colours are as pictured for the bag, and for the handles a little more brownish, but that gives it a quality anyhow. The measurements given are exactly that: a big bag. Beautiful workmanship thank you!

Trip to the beach of course, light shopping because I would not want to damage this nice bag
