This Fornasetti Architettura Paper Basket in Multicolor is for individuals seeking a functional yet highly decorative piece that blends utility with art. Its key benefit is its dual purpose as a sophisticated waste bin and a striking decorative accessory, elevating any interior space.

Key features include hand-silkscreened and lacquered metal construction, a brass upper edge, and a unique architectural motif wrapping the exterior.

No, this item is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements can damage the hand-silkscreened and lacquered finish.
If using as a vase, ensure a liner or internal container is used to hold water to prevent direct contact with the metal and lacquer. Clean the interior with mild soap and water, rinsing and drying thoroughly.
The motif is hand-silkscreened onto the metal surface, a key aspect of Fornasetti's artisanal production process.
The product description specifies a brass upper edge but does not detail the material of the feet. They are typically designed to be sturdy and protective of surfaces.
The 'Multicolor' designation typically refers to the specific colorway of the Architettura design, which often features a primary palette with intricate detailing. The exact colors are best visualized from product images.
This is a characteristic of the hand-silkscreened and lacquered process, intended to provide a unique, artisanal finish. Embrace these subtle variations as part of the item's charm.
Gently polish the brass edge with a soft, dry cloth. For more significant tarnish, a specialized brass cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by thorough drying and buffing with a soft cloth. Avoid contact with the lacquered body.
Ensure the basket is placed on a completely flat and level surface. Check that the feet are evenly contacting the ground and that the item is not overloaded unevenly.
Setup: This item requires no assembly. Simply place it in your desired location. Ensure it is placed on a stable, level surface to prevent tipping.
