Early Imperial Amethyst Carnival Glass Bushel Basket - 1920s-30s - Purple Iridescent Art Glass

$50.00
This early Imperial amethyst carnival glass bushel basket is a beautiful example of American glassmaking from the 1920s–1930s. Crafted in thick, weighty glass with a smooth flat base and rounded molded handles, this piece reflects the quality and character of Imperial’s early production.
The color is a deep, rich grape‑purple in natural light, shifting toward a soft cobalt tone under blacklight — a signature trait of Imperial’s early amethyst formula. Its satin‑like iridescence gives the surface a velvety glow, adding warmth and dimension without overwhelming the form.
Perfect as a decorative accent, candy dish, centerpiece, or collectible display piece, this basket brings a touch of vintage charm to any room. Whether styled on a shelf, incorporated into a tablescape, or added to a curated glassware collection, it offers timeless beauty and heirloom appeal.
