Vintage Amber Art Glass Basket. Measures 6 1/2" in height. Excellent condition.
Add a warm, radiant glow to your decor with this exquisite vintage amber art glass basket. A beautiful example of Mid-Century studio glass, this piece features a classic ruffled or "crimped" rim that showcases the fluidity of the glass-blowing process. The rich honey-amber tone is deeply saturated at the base and transitions into a lighter, golden transparency toward the top, allowing it to capture and radiate natural light beautifully when placed near a window.
The hand-pulled handle is seamlessly fused to the body, a testament to the artisan's skill. Its organic, rounded silhouette makes it a versatile decorative accent—perfect for holding small seasonal potpourri, wrapped candies, or simply standing alone as a sculptural centerpiece. While the design echoes the elegance of Victorian-era "bride's baskets," its clean lines and vibrant monochromatic color palette place it firmly within the Mid-Century Modern aesthetic. For a sophisticated styling idea, place this in a Dark Academia-inspired study on a stack of leather-bound books, or use it to bring a pop of earthy, warm color to a minimalist glass collection.
