Rattan Bowl Basket | Gabriella Crespi Style Pencil Reed

Vintage Rattan Bowl Basket | Pencil Reed in Gabriella Crespi Style

This vintage rattan bowl basket brings beautiful texture and sculptural warmth to any room, crafted from tightly coiled pencil reed with a style reminiscent of Gabriella Crespi’s iconic woven work.

It solves the need for a versatile decorative piece that feels both functional and expressive, offering natural texture and timeless vintage appeal for tabletop styling, storage, or display.

Likely made in Italy in the early to mid 1900s, this unmarked basket features a coiled pencil reed construction with subtle patina and gentle wear from age. The organic lines and warm tone make it an effortless centerpiece for a dining table, coffee table, or console. Its lightweight structure and generous scale allow it to hold objects or stand alone as a sculptural statement. Each piece is chosen for its character, craftsmanship, and beautifully aged finish.
