Portuguese Wicker Basket

About the Item

Wicker basket. Worked in dark wicker with a varnished finish, revealing a warm tone between brown and black. The structure has a decorative interlacing in the shape of lozenges, obtained by carefully overlapping the plant elements. The upper edge is reinforced by a rigid circular frame. The base is also braided, revealing the craftsman's mastery in combining functionality and ornamentation. This type of basket was traditionally used for storing or presenting small objects and could also serve as a decorative accessory in rustic-inspired interiors. The marks of use and slight wear attest to its age and authenticity, suggesting a past linked to everyday practices, where aesthetics merged harmoniously with utility.
