A rare collaborative work featuring the best of both worlds. The unusual weight contains four concentric rows of Damons complex millefiori with the outer row pulled to the base forming a blue stave basket. Once cooled the piece was meticulously cold-worked by Andrew Najarian creating a miniature basket which is precise and communicates a unique tactile experience. The sides of the work gracefully sweep upward to a faceted handle holding basket with fluted walls. Very few baskets were made due to it being a labour intensive design.
