Antique French Country Majolica Wire Basket with Heart Handles

French country design is defined by its ability to transform everyday objects into something beautiful, and this antique majolica wire basket is a lovely example of that. Charming and rare, this Antique French Country Majolica Wire Basket has a delicate hand-painted majolica plate with pink grapes framed in an intricately woven metal wire footed base. Made by factories such as Gien, Salins and Sarreguemines, this early one is unmarked. The standout detail? The heart-shaped handles, adding a romantic touch that's characteristic of French provincial design. 

Originally used as a tabletop bread or fruit basket in the 1800's, it now makes a perfect decorative centerpiece or an exceptional addition to your collection. Gorgeous age-appropriate patina and slight wear consistent with time only enhance its authenticity and charm. A unique marriage of craftsmanship and countryside grace, this piece will elevate your French country-inspired home. Complimentary U.S. shipping included.
