Comment:
Remarks: For materials see Supplementary catalogue 1, p. 47. Was marked as missing in 1992, presumably because number had fallen off. Identified during basket move of 2014. This may be an openwork basket, currently with an image mislabeled as 1-90.jpg in the Basket Folder on the tms image drive (the original number of 1-2577 is 90). Unable to find a TB- number currently for this but there should be one.
