Belleek Basket
Belleek Basket. This Belleek Henshall Basket is part of the 150th Anniversary Archive Collection. It is a limited edition piece - only 350 were made. Each piece is numbered and stamped with the special 150th Anniversary Belleek stamp.
William Henshall came to Belleek in 1867 bringing the skills and art of porcelain basket and flower making. Over the next forty years he developed the art, designing over twenty different baskets.
First introduced in the 1880s, Belleek has meticulously recreated the original style Henshall Basket with a three-strand base and twig handles. This introduction is limited to 350 baskets and will have a certificate of authenticity. It measures 8" x 6.5" (20.5 x 16.5cm).
