The Longaberger Legacy
Founded in 1973 by Dave Longaberger, the Longaberger Company became synonymous with quality, craftsmanship, and community. Each basket was handmade in Dresden, Ohio, by skilled artisans who infused every weave with care and tradition. Known for their distinctive style and practicality, Longaberger baskets quickly became beloved collectors' items.
Perhaps one of the most iconic symbols of the brand is the Longaberger headquarters—a massive seven-story building shaped like a picnic basket. Though the company shifted direction over the years, its legacy lives on in the hands of collectors who cherish these pieces of history.
