The basket is patterned throughout with frosted and clear embossed grapes and grape leaves, paired with a natural bamboo handle. It's a substantial piece, weighing roughly two pounds before packaging.
Perfect as a fruit basket, serving bowl, catch-all for collectibles, or displayed in a powder room filled with hand towels — striking whether used or left entirely on its own.
Vetreria Etrusca was founded in Italy in 1920, originally producing jars and bottles for the wine and olive oil industries. Beginning in the 1960s, the company expanded into decorative glass, designing containers that could transition from packaging into candle holders, vases, and home decor — this basket may have been sold to the floral industry for arrangements. Vetreria Etrusca remains in business today, though this particular design is no longer made.
