Description

A peculiar and stylish piece, this object is a lacquered waste paper basket, made in England in the late 20th century in the style of Kenneth Neame.

It uses faux book spines in a circle to create the impression of a library from each side, with the spines labelled 'Royal Academy Pictures,' in leather with red bands, in the Edwardian style.

A quirky and characterful piece, designed to make a mark, it will add a charming antique English Trompe L'oeil effect, a stylish choice over the contemporary alternative.
