Click to enlarge image(s)

1999 Longaberger Generosity Basket from the Traditions Collection. This collection was started in 1995, designed by Dave Longaberger, who determined the qualities of Family, Community, Fellowship, Hospitality and Generosity were the most important qualities for people to possess. This series features Heritage Green weave and trim with all unique forms. The collection was completed with this basket, just months after Dave Longaberger passed away. This Classic stain basket (Form No. 13358) has a Brass Tag identifying it as part of the Traditions Collection, two swinging handles, and the combo includes the Protector (No. 49816 ), the Heritage Green Plaid liner (No. 2444945). Dimensions: 19.25 inches x 13.5 inches x 7.75 inches. Paperwork for the basket is included.

The heavy plastic protector allows for a smaller protector to be inserted - I am including a Divided Protector, No.49727. This nice Protector has 7 divisions - you can put dip and veggies in it, you can do tacos and accompaniments too.

All of my Longaberger items have always been in a smoke-free home; our last pet (a cat) left us in January of 2001. The baskets and accessories have been in inside storage for several years.
