I have a wall pocket to sell. The object the woman is holding needs a name! I'm thinking horn of plenty, cornucopia, water basket, what?? Any ideas for me?

Cornucopia is the correct name.

Neglus: Yes, it's Weil Ware. I've had it in my wall pocket collection for years but am letting it go now.

So, everybody, thanks for your advice. I'll go with cornucopia--but my question I guess is why would she be carrying one around? My only experience with such an item is as decoration on the Thanksgiving table, overflowing with vegetables and fruits.

I even thought of Rebecca at the Well--you know, that Bible story. But I believe that cornucopia will do it.

Toasted, I have some of those posy holders by various makers and will sell them someday. I'd call those two items baskets she's carrying since they have a handle.
