Lot 115:
Description
A vintage hand-woven wicker or rattan specialty basket designed to function as a wine or Chianti bottle holder or carrier. The object is constructed from natural woven material, displaying a warm brown tone. The form resembles a deep slipper or boot, featuring a tightly woven, solid central base and open, cross-hatched latticework forming the sides. The structure is reinforced by thick, braided coils forming the rim and frame. A small woven loop is present at the tapered top, and another loop is visible at the toe or base, suggesting it is designed for vertical hanging or display. The style is traditional rustic basketry. No visible text or markings are present.
