Description
 -------  One (1), gorgeous, heavy, and exceedingly rare -- antique, wall mounted basket, for collecting soiled bath towels, or storing fresh rolled ones. Unsigned, attributed to JL Mott Iron Works, of New York, produced in the late 19th to very early 20th century. JL Mott bath fittings are revered for their skillful, robust construction, invisible welding, minimalist yet beautiful design, and utility / functionality for the task at hand.

Thoughtful design - this basket has bars along the back, and attached, offset, teardrop-shaped mounting tabs - this design helps to keep things placed inside from directly touching or rubbing the wall. 

I found this exact basket in the 1907/1908 JL Mott Iron Works, Catalog "A" (See last photo collage for catalog pics.) The catalog shows this basket quite clearly - note its distinctive “divided circle” design at the base. Also, there’s an illustration of this basket on a bathroom wall. (Note - this catalog is not copyrighted, it is in the public domain.)

This is only the third Victorian towel basket that I’ve found in my lifetime. They are rare. 

It is surprisingly heavy for size - weighing about 6 pounds before packing.

Creative uses are many.
