Masterfully hand-woven in Yugoslavia during the peak of the 1960s–1970s bohemian design era, this unique piece beautifully bridges sculptural folk art and retro Hollywood Regency flair.Constructed from highly durable, tightly woven split willow and natural rattan, it features a beautifully defined, structured cylindrical crown and a perfectly proportioned, gently rolled brim. The rich, warm caramel-honey patina highlights the intricate craftsmanship and geometric depth of the weave.Infinitely versatile, this collectible accent piece makes a stunning tabletop centerpiece, a whimsical cachepot planter for indoor botanicals, or a statement-making catchall on an entry console. Because items bearing the historical "Yugoslavia" stamp are increasingly finite and rare, this novelty piece is an excellent find for discerning collectors of mid-century wicker and rattan. See less
