Before I ordered these, I saw photos of ones that were misshapen when they arrived, the price was right, and I liked the look, so I ordered them. A box of three came, and sure enough they were all misshapen, I did not think to take a picture of them at the time, but very similar to the photos online. Being a basket maker, I knew what to do - soaked them in water in a plastic tub as they are dyed and the dye will come off, reshaped them and put them in the sun to dry. They are fine and great looking
