Crafted using two tones of wicker and green glass, it exudes vintage charm and elegance. This double handled demijohn hails from Europe, where it was probably used to transport and store precious liquids, the wicker originally designed to protect the glass vessels during transport. The light green hue of the glass is timeless. Authenticity often lies in imperfections. Look closely, and find signs of its age and craftsmanship. The demijohn’s narrow neck and wide, bulbous body give it a distinctive silhouette. Whether placed on a rustic farmhouse table, a vintage sideboard, or part of a British Colonial vignette, this demijohn adds character.
