This charming vintage piece is a woven lidded basket topped with a decorative shell collage, blending coastal charm with handmade warmth.
Brief Description:
• The base is a handwoven, oval-shaped basket with braided detailing, made from natural raffia or straw. Its neutral tone complements the beachy palette of the embellishments.
• The lid is crowned with a carefully arranged seashell sculpture: a large, ribbed murex shell stands tall at the center, flanked by scallops, moon snails, augers, and coral fragments.
• The color scheme includes soft creams, buttery yellows, blush pinks, and sandy browns, giving it a sun-kissed, shoreline aesthetic.
• The overall effect is like a miniature ocean garden rising from the basket’s surface—playful, elegant, and nostalgic.
This piece likely dates from mid-century shellcraft traditions and would make a lovely coastal accent, jewelry box, or keepsake holder.
