Vintage Halloween Witch Woven Basket Primitive Folk Art Decoration

The basket is constructed of black-painted woven splint material with a tall integrated carrying handle. The witch features a dimensional hand-painted face, natural-fiber/straw-style hair, and an oversized pointed black witch hat.
The combination of the woven black basket, exaggerated witch face, straw hair, and distressed hat gives this piece a fantastic primitive folk-art Halloween appearance.
