A striking vintage hand-worked wire pedestal basket in the French country tradition, featuring an unusually sculptural footed form and beautifully detailed wirework construction. The generously scaled basket is formed from concentric bands of wire individually wrapped to heavier radial supports, with a repeating looped border finishing both the upper rim and pedestal base.
The subtle irregularities in the wire spacing and silhouette give the piece wonderful character and emphasize its hand-worked construction. Its dark, naturally aged metal finish adds depth and patina without overwhelming the delicate openwork design.
At over 15 inches across, this is a substantial piece with wonderful presence on a dining table, kitchen island or console. Beautiful filled with fruit, seasonal botanicals or linens, and equally appealing displayed empty as a sculptural object.
Dimensions: approximately 15.6” W × 15” D × 9.5” H.
