In 1960s Italy, Fontana Arte explored the sculptural possibilities of thick glass, blurring the lines between utilitarian object and decorative piece. This large basket is an elegant demonstration of this, where the material takes precedence over ornamentation.
Measuring 30 cm wide and 8 cm high , this piece is distinguished by its subtly rippled, sea-green glass and its elongated angles, which lend it a striking graphic presence. The dense, slightly irregular glasswork captures light with depth and reveals the glassmaking expertise characteristic of Fontana Arte. The piece is in excellent condition, with remarkable transparency and clarity for an item of this period.
A basket that is both sculptural and functional, ideal as a centerpiece or display piece, perfect for lovers of modernist Italian design and iconic pieces from the 60s.
