Large BRENT ROURKE (Canada) handcrafted Dory Basket Cherry Wood NWT 23"

Description

Large BRENT ROURKE (Canada) handcrafted Dory Basket Cherry Wood NWT 23"
This listing is for a great handcrafted cherry wood w/ copper rivet Dory Basket by Brent Rourke, a woodworker in New Bruswick, Canada. In like-new condition with the paper tag still attached. Signed on the underside. No issues to note other than a few darker marks - possibly pencil - inside the basket. I’ll leave it to the buyer to decide if they want to remove. I didn’t want to damage the surface.
Bowl is about 23" long x 6.25” wide x 4.25" at highest.
The bowl is very light but will require a long box to ship safely. It will weigh about 3lbs packed safely. Local pickup near Boston welcome!
Thank you!
From Brent's website:
The 'dory boat' has been used for hundreds of years by Atlantic Canadian and New England fishermen. We've adapted the style into a useful basket for bread, fresh fruit or decorating.
Made from cherry wood with copper rivets. We've used food-safe mineral oil to finish this basket because your family's health is important to us.
