Trio of Ceramic Apple Basket Canisters

This is a graduated set of three decorative ceramic kitchen canisters, likely manufactured by companies like Treasure Craft or Sigma the Tastesetter circa the late 1980s or 1990s. The set features a rustic design where each base is molded to resemble a light-beige wooden fruit bushel basket with realistic simulated wood grain and dark brown 'nail' accents at the rim. The canisters are labeled with specific apple varieties contained within pink floral oval cartouches: 'MACINTOSH' (large), 'GOLDEN DELICIOUS' (medium), and 'GRANNY SMITH' (small). The lids are highly sculptural, featuring a three-dimensional cluster of the corresponding hand-painted apples in vibrant red, buttery yellow, and forest green. The craftsmanship is characterized by a glossy glazed finish and detailed painting on the leaves and stems. The overall condition appears excellent with no visible surface crazing, chips, or cracks, which often plague vintage ceramics of this type. The sets were popular in country-style kitchens for their combination of functional storage and whimsical aesthetic appeal.
