Basket - August 10, 2006
Anyone know details about this kind of basket?
It reminds me of the 1998 Rory Maclean travelogue 'Under the Dragon - Travels in a betrayed land' in which the author and his significant other go in search of the Burmese/Myanmese origins of a smoked basket they find in a London antiques shop.

Generally a good read. My signed hardback suffered in the 2000 deluge. The signature is now only a blur.
