A well-designed little object, one of those that naturally finds its place in the home and eventually becomes indispensable. This metal basket features beautiful line work and volutes, with a dark patina that highlights its vintage character. Its deliberately light and graphic structure gives it the typical charm of mid-20th century decorative accessories, when metal entered interiors in forms that were both practical and elegant. Its most interesting detail is found inside. A movable and articulated grid folds down over the contents and holds in place whatever you wish to put inside. A clever design that now allows complete freedom in its use. On a table, it will beautifully hold paper or cloth napkins. In an entryway, it will become a letter basket for letters and cards. On a desk, papers, envelopes, and small notebooks will find their place there. In a kitchen, it can even hold small items you like to keep within reach. This is precisely what gives it its charm today. It imposes nothing and adapts to the home that adopts it. The volutes give it a decorative presence without weighing it down, and its old patina has been preserved, bringing to the metal that depth new finishes often try to imitate. Made around , a small Mid-Century piece full of character, as pretty empty as it is useful for daily life. Dimensions approximately 23 × 19 cm. Height approximately 14 cm.
