Baskets like this were popular from the 1940s through the 1960s, often produced by American glassmakers such as Indiana Glass, L.E. Smith, or Fenton, known for their bold colors and pressed patterns. The craftsmanship showcases the artistry of pressed glass during this period, when pieces were both decorative and practical.
This basket is perfect as a centerpiece, candy dish, flower holder, or collectible display item. Its timeless amber tone pairs beautifully with both vintage and modern décor.
