Pastel Hand-Painted Art Glass Basket

This item is a decorative art glass basket, likely made of milk glass or a similar opaque glass, featuring a delicate hand-painted design. The basket stands approximately 6-8 inches tall, with a graceful, flared rim and a sturdy, twisted handle. The body of the basket is a soft, pastel green, transitioning smoothly to a ruffled pink rim, suggesting an 'end of day' or cased glass technique. The handle, also pastel green, appears to be made of solid or molded glass, featuring a rope-like twisted detail. The exterior of the basket is adorned with hand-painted floral and botanical motifs, specifically visible are large, muted green leaves with subtle reddish accents, and a delicate butterfly in hues of yellow and purple. There are also small clusters of pinkish-red berries or flowers. The painting style suggests a freehand, perhaps folk-art approach, adding to its charm. The overall finish appears to be satin or frosted, giving it a soft, diffused appearance rather than a high gloss. The base is wider than the mid-section, providing stability. There is a small white tag, possibly a price tag or inventory sticker, visible near the top rim. The condition appears to be excellent, with no visible chips, cracks, or significant wear to the paintwork or glass. The craftsmanship, particularly the applied handle and the detailed painting, indicates a piece made with care, likely intended as an ornamental item for display.
