Woven Ceramic Basket | Italian Porcelain

Item Type: Pre-Loved

A woven ceramic basket for fruit on the table or a quiet bit of display on a shelf — the kind of piece that holds something or simply holds its own.

Italian porcelain worked into an openwork basket form, the lattice pierced to read like woven cane. White-glazed throughout, with the weight and ring of fired porcelain rather than earthenware. The open weave keeps it light to the eye while it sits solid on the surface.

Pierced and basket-form porcelain has a long history in Italian and wider European ceramics, where the lattice was a demonstration of the potter's skill — fired so the openwork holds its shape. This piece carries that decorative tradition into a useful object for fruit or display.
