HUGE Lot of Longaberger Christmas Baskets!

You're bidding on a fabulous set of retired Longaberger Christmas baskets plus BONUSES!  Beginning with the 1986 Candy Cane basket, there are 17 total baskets, and all are in red except for the last one that only was offered with the red and green upsplints.  Here is what you'll receive...

  • 1986 Candy Cane Basket, 5" long x 5" wide x 4 1/2" high.  Comes with the original product card that has a recipe inside for Old-Fashioned Pulled Peppermint Candy Canes.  This basket was sold without any accessories, but does has the protector from a Small Peg basket in it. The brass tag is in excellent condition and this basket has aged beautifully!  The Bentley Guide values this basket at $138.  BONUS:  You'll also receive a piece of this basket's original sales literature (none of the bonus literature is pictured, but will be included)!
  • 1987 Mistletoe Basket, 7" long x 5" wide x 3 1/2" high.  Comes with the original product card.  Originally the basket was not sold with accessories, but because it uses the same basket form as a Tea basket, you will receive a protector and a Plaid Tidings liner.  The brass tag is in excellent condition and the basket has aged beautifully!  The Bentley Guide values this basket at $49.  BONUS:  You'll also receive a piece of this basket's original sales literature!
  • 1988 Poinsettia Basket, 7" in diameter by 6 1/2 high.  This basket also came with no accessories, and I do not have a product card for it.  The brass tag is in excellent condition and so is the basket!  Has aged very well.  The Bentley Guide values this basket at $58.
  • 1989 Holiday Memory Basket, 8 3/4" tall x 4 3/4" wide x 6 1/2" high.  Another basket that had no accessories offered with it.  The brass tag still has the protective plastic covering on it, and there are no broken or split splints on this basket.  The Bentley Guide values this basket at $55.  BONUS:  You'll also receive a piece of this basket's original sales literature!
  • 1990 Gingerbread Basket, 10" long x 6" wide x 4" high, not counting the handle.  This was the first Christmas basket that was offered with accessories, but this basket has a protector (it uses the Small Chore basket form, and the protector is not shown in the picture).  The brass tag is in excellent condition and the basket itself is in wonderful condition.  The Bentley Guide values this baskets at $45.  BONUS:  You'll also receive a piece of this basket's original sales literature!
  • 1991 Yuletide Traditions Basket, 13" long x 7 1/2" wide x 3" high in the front and slopes up to 8" high in the back.  With this you'll receive the Plaid Tidings liner (sorry, no protector).  The brass tag is in excellent condition.  Basket is in very good condition; has a couple of small scuffs that don't detract from it's beauty at all.  The Bentley Guide values this basket at $56.  BONUS:  You'll also receive a piece of this basket's original sales literature!
  • 1992 Season's Greetings Basket, 9 1/2" long x 6" wide x 6" high, not counting handles.  Great set!  Comes with the Plaid Tidings liner (sorry, no protector), two original product cards, PLUS the original bag for the liner!  The brass tag still has the protective plastic covering on it.  Excellent condition!  The Bentley Guide values this basket at $70.  BONUS:  You'll also receive a piece of this basket's original sales literature!

  • 1994 Jingle Bell Basket, 8" in diameter by 6" tall, not counting handle.  This set comes with the stand-up Imperial Stripe, two product cards, the inspector's card, plus the WoodCrafts Lid (the lid feels sticky...I will leave it to the buyer to try and clean it)!  The brass tag still has the protective plastic on it and the basket is in wonderful condition!  The Bentley Guide values this combo at $90. 
  • 1995 Cranberry Basket, 8 1/2" long x 8 1/2" wide x 7" high, not counting the handles.  Great set!  Comes complete Imperial Strip and Traditional Holly over-the-edge liners, protector, product card, inspector's card, label from the Imperial Stripe liner bag, PLUS the WoodCrafts lid with red knob!  The knob has some small wear marks on the edges, but nothing major.  The brass tag still is covered in it's protective plastic.  Basket is in excellent condition, and the Bentley Guide values this combo at $80.  BONUS:  You'll also receive a piece of this basket's original sales literature!
  • 1996 Holiday Cheer Basket, 12" long x 8"wide x 4 1/4" high, not counting the handles.  Nearly perfect condition!  Comes with the Imperial Stripe stand-up liner, the liner bag, protector, product card, PLUS it's woven by a left-handed weaver!  You can tell by the trim strip around the top edge of the basket.  When the basket front is facing you, the trim strip ends facing your right hand.  The brass tag still is covered in it's protective plastic, and other than a very small mark on the edge of handle that you really have to search to find, this basket is perfect!  The Bentley Guide values this set at $60.  BONUS:  You'll also receive a piece of this basket's original sales literature!
  • 1997 Snowflake Basket, 10" long x 9 1/4" wide x 6 1/2" high (not counting the handle).  This is a great six-sided basket that comes with the protector, Imperial Stripe liner, product card, and liner bag.  The brass tag is still covered in the protective plastic.  Excellent condition!  The Bentley Guide values this set at $73.
  • 1998 Glad Tidings Basket, 8 3/4" long x 6" wide x 7 1/2" tall in front sloping up to 9" high in back (not counting handle).  This basket features a sawtooth picture hanger on the back which allows you to hang it on the wall if you'd like.  Comes with the stand-up Imperial Stripe liner, protector, product card, and liner bag.  The basket is in excellent condition!  The brass tag is still covered in it's protective plastic.  The Bentley Guide values this set at $72.
  • 1999 Popcorn Basket, 10 1/2" in diameter and 5" tall.  Comes with the Berry Red Stripe liner and protector.  The brass tag is still covered in the protective plastic and the solid wood bottom has the felt "feet" attached.  the basket features two leather handles on the sides for carrying and comes with the WoodCrafts lid with red knob.  Excellent condition!  The Bentley Guide values this combo at $100.
  • 2000 Deck the Halls Basket, 8 1/2" long x 8 1/2" wide x 6" high, not counting the handles.  Comes with the Evergreen Plaid liner with tassels, the liner bag, product card, and single protector (not stackable).  It is only the second Longaberger basket to features criss-cross accent weaving on the basket, and because of the year it was issued it also has the Century Celebration logo burned on the bottom of the basket.  The brass tag is in good condition, and the basket overall is excellent!  The Bentley Guide values this basket at $80.
  • 2001 Shining Star Basket, 10 1/4" long x 11" wide x 3 3/4" high.  This was Longaberger's first-ever star-shaped basket.  It comes with the Evergreen Plaid liner, product card, and protector.  The brass tag is in excellent condition.  There are a couple of small scuff marks on the trim strip of the basket, and the bottom of the basket shows several scratches (I'm including a set of felt "feet" to adhere to the basket bottom to protect it from further wear).  Still an awesome set!  The Bentley Guide values this set at $81.
  • 2003 Caroling Basket, 7 1/2" round x 5" high not counting handle.  Last but not least in this set, this is the only basket that only one color was offered...there is no choice of green or red trim strip, but instead this basket was the first one ever to feature green and red upsplints.  Comes with the Paprika scalloped over-the-edge liner and product card.  The brass tag is in excellent condition, as is the basket itself.  The Bentley Guide values this set at $83.

There you have it!  A fabulous set of 17 baskets, the first 16 in completely consecutive years in the same color, all in fabulous condition with lots of extras!  This set is valued at well over $1,000 and is a major bargain.  What a great way to quickly add to your collection of Longaberger as well as enhance your Christmas decor!  Please check out my other auctions as I'm listing some great Longaberger bargains this week!  Thanks for looking!

Questions and answers about this item
 Q: Hello, I am interested in your auction for the baskets but I am a little confused. I am almost certain that the auction's high bid at the time I marked it was somewhere above $300.00. What happened, or, I am I... Continue reading
