Longaberger Company was an American manufacturer and retailer of handcrafted baskets and pottery, founded by T. Garber Longaberger in 1978. The company became famous for its iconic woven baskets, often featuring unique designs and seasonal themes, which were sold through home parties and a direct sales force. Their products became popular collectibles, particularly in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

These baskets, with their characteristic woven wood strips and leather handles, exemplify the rustic charm and craftsmanship associated with the Longaberger brand. The use of metal brads to secure the woven elements is a common construction technique for this type of basket. The inclusion of leather handles adds a touch of practicality and aesthetic appeal, making them suitable for various decorative or functional uses.
