Vintage Burnt Orange Art Glass Basket with Ornate Ormolu Brass Handle

This elegant vintage art glass basket features a rich burnt orange hue with warm tonal depth that glows beautifully when light passes through the glass. The bowl is deeply ribbed with a scalloped rim and set into an ornate brass gallery with pierced detailing, raised on decorative brass feet. A gracefully arched brass handle with floral filigree completes the form, giving the piece a strong European revival presence.

Though inspired by Victorian-era glass baskets, this example is best classified as vintage, likely mid-20th century, created to echo the drama and ornamentation of earlier decorative glass without being antique. The saturated burnt orange color reads sophisticated rather than bright, making it especially versatile for classic interiors.

A striking decorative accent for a dining table, console, bar cart, or styled vignette.

Beautiful styled as a centerpiece, candy dish, or decorative catchall. The burnt orange glass pairs especially well with wood tones, brass, bookshelves, and Old Money–inspired interiors. Lovely displayed empty or filled with fruit, seasonal décor, or dried florals.
