An antique wicker-wrapped glass demijohn bottle found in Alsace, originating from France circa 1920s. This large-scale glass demijohn features its original, hand-woven wicker casing and sturdy braided handles. Historically used to transport wine and cider across rural Europe, the protective wicker jacket remains beautifully intact. Retaining its original cork and dark glass neck, this is a remarkable, storied piece of European agrarian history.

A NOTE ON CHARACTER
Each piece shows the gentle marks of time, adding to its character. Photos reflect the condition; variations may occur. Please note that the woven casing shows a few areas of slightly loose wicker and carries a faint trace of historic dust embedded in its fibers—though we have cleaned it to the absolute maximum to preserve its incredible integrity. All sales are final. Every curve and imperfection tells a story — a testament to the Maison Amaranth ethos of bringing objects with soul into your home.
