This is a beautiful vintage Blenko amethyst glass basket with a smoothly flared body and a sturdy applied handle.
The rich purple tone deepens where the glass is thicker, giving it a striking look under light.
Likely produced during the mid-20th century (1940s–1970s) by an American glass company such as Viking, L.E. Smith, or Fenton, these baskets were popular as candy dishes, decorative centerpieces, or small flower holders.
