Options for getting a basket repaired
Text me. Text me first (!!!!!) because I NEVER pick up numbers I don't recognize. We can determine what you need over text, or we can arrange a conversation.
Here's what I can do:
- Replace broken or unraveled hinges
- Replace broken binding around rims
- Replace missing weaving
- Replace broken staves
All repairs include:
- Free cosmetic clean-ups
- Removal of top decoration (whale, seagull, shell, etc) for
polishing
- Wood refinishing (you may opt out)
- Fresh shellac
All new cane will be stained to match the existing patina of your basket.
With sufficient demand, I'll visit Nantucket once a week or so to pick up and return repaired baskets.
Two options to get your basket to me
Option 1
Ship your basket to me via UPS or FedEx with the appraised insurance value. If your basket has not been appraised, use $3,000 as a minimum.
Option 2
Drop your basket off at my home in Rhode Island.
