{"product_id":"vintage-woven-wire-basket-in-silver-with-twisted-handle","title":"Vintage Woven Wire Basket in Silver with Twisted Handle","description":"\u003cp\u003eSmall things can be the most charming, and this little woven wire basket is a perfect example. Fine silver toned wire has been woven by hand into a square basket that flares gently at the rim, with a scalloped edge at the top, a band of looped wire around the base and a tall twisted rope handle that arches over the top. It looks almost like a miniature version of a garden trug, but dressed up for the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe basket itself measures 7 cm high and 9 cm across, rising to 14 cm with the handle up, and weighs just 110 g. The base is woven in a neat open lattice, and the handle swings down flat against the side when you want to tuck it on a shelf. It is a lovely, light little piece with plenty of sparkle, and the weave is crisp and even all the way round, as you can see in the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt this time of year we would fill it with a few wrapped sweets or chocolate coins and hand it over as a Christmas token, or a stocking filler. Line it with a scrap of tissue paper and it becomes a pretty way to give homemade fudge or truffles. The rest of the year it makes a sweet home for rings and earrings on a dressing table, paper clips on a desk, tealights on a windowsill or a posy of dried flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGroup it with other silver and glass pieces for a bit of shimmer on a mantelpiece, or pop it beside a bowl of clementines and some greenery for an easy festive corner. However you use it, it is a small find that makes people smile.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Blue Loft","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55715553476935,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/3921\/9015\/files\/vintage-woven-silver-wire-basket-twisted-handle-front.jpg?v=1793875863","url":"https:\/\/www.theblueloft.co.uk\/products\/vintage-woven-wire-basket-in-silver-with-twisted-handle","provider":"The Blue Loft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
