"The last Shaker basket was made in 1958; but Shaker basketmaking had effectively come to an end by 1900. In a period of some sixty or seventy years, the Shakers had made 150,000 - maybe 200,000- baskets......" from the Introduction to Shaker Baskets by Martha Wetherbee and Nathan Taylor.
The authors through years of combing archives and experimenting with the Shaker system of making basket present their research of Shaker Baskets.
