MEDITERRANEO FRUIT BASKETS
Designed By Emma Silvestris& Lpwk
Once upon a time, coral could be found all over the Mediterranean and it was exported across the world in exchange for spices and perfumes.
Designer Emma Silvestris has skillfully explored the imagery of the sea world to create this basket, which embodies the essential forms and levity of the organisms that populate the ocean. Designed in 2004, this basket paved the way for the Mediterraneo series.
