" ... Repairing Damaged Baskets
Basketry repair and restoration is extremely difficult, because of the brittle nature of the basket, material matching problem (sometimes it’s no longer available), and color matching difficulties, to say nothing of destroying antique value if repaired badly.
If your basket has been damaged in some way, minimize further damage by taking it out of circulation, don’t use it and keep it in a safe place until you can locate a basket repair expert or conservator.
Don’t use any kind of masking tape, duct tape or any sort of adhesive as a stop-gap measure, because that may add to more broken pieces during the removal process.
There are some Cane and Wicker restoration businesses that also repair baskets, so check on my National Furniture Repair Directory™ in both categories to see if you can locate a pro to help with your basket repairs. ..."

I do wish I could have done more for you Sandygirl, but there is nothing that I can find about how to repair a peach basket; gullah sweetgrass baskets, Afrikans baskets, woven baskets, yes, but not a peach basket.
Thanks anyway.
