AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Large pot cover / rush basket on wheels – Boho Chic Style –
A large and evocative pot cover (or container basket) in full Boho Chic / Wabi-Sabi style, characterized by a rustic, tactile, and heavily lived-in aesthetic. The cylindrical body is handcrafted through the overlay of rush canes (or solid bamboo) curved into a spiral.
A piece with great decorative potential, ideal as a restoration project for artisans or upcycling enthusiasts who want to reinforce the base and restore the mobility of the wheels.
The item features an antique-era structure that requires restoration work to be safely used with heavy loads. The inner and outer base is made of panforte, but it is no longer as solid or robust as originally, showing signs of settling or weakening due to age and past humidity. At the bottom there are 3 swivel wheels that currently do not roll smoothly and require maintenance.
The rush body is characterized by some irregularities, partial cracks, and some color discrepancies that attest to its handmade craftsmanship and age.
A piece with great decorative potential, ideal as a restoration project for artisans or upcycling enthusiasts who want to consolidate the base and restore the mobility of the wheels.
Dimensions:
The object shows some signs of wear. The base in panforte is weakened and not considered strong; the wheels roll somewhat poorly. Please view the photo gallery, which is an integral part of the description, and assess the structural and aesthetic defects before placing bids.
Seller's Story
For over 20 years, I have dedicated myself passionately to the search for and trading of special, rare, curious objects from any era.
Every piece I select has something that catches my attention: it can be the shape, the story, the unusual aspect, or simply that detail that makes it unique.
I am always searching for objects that speak, that tell something to those who know how to listen.
I choose them carefully, photograph them honestly, and describe them as accurately as possible.
Selling on this Catawiki to share this passion with those who, like me, love to surround themselves with things with a soul.
