The Farnum Handbag is a truly
authentic replica of the original Lightship basket, more popularly known
as a "Nantucket Basket." The founder,
Albert Farnum Cleaveland, ran this family-owned business from Florida
well into his 80's. When he recently passed on, his three sons proudly
stepped in to carry on their father's legacy.
Now entering our 30th year of production, they continue to sell the
highest quality handbag, at an affordable price. Plus, a wide assortment
of scrimshaw designs depicting classic nautical and wildlife scenes |

|
5 different handbags, with
handle or leather shoulder strap (50") and over 65 different
scrimshaw designs for the top and inside of the baskets. The baskets
are imported to the manufacturer's specifications, the scrimshaw and
final assembly is done in Rhode Island. Each basket includes a matching
key chain and a penny with the year it was born |
