Cane Under Lucite

A lidded box with woven cane set into clear lucite, Italy, c.1970s — the cannage-under-acrylic look made famous by Christian Dior Home and Gabriella Crespi, here in a smaller, usable size for a desk or dressing table. It still carries its original gold retailer's label (Corso Giannone, Foggia). Keep trinkets, jewellery or odds and ends in it; it earns its place closed.
