Vintage 1950s-1960s Hungarian Folk Art Woven Wire Scoubidou "Defiance" Bottle with Rose Motif

Rising as an act of artistic expression and resistance to the political climate in the 1950s and 1960s, Hungarians took to covering liquor bottles with woven telephone wire. While the reason behind this particular bottle being covered in beautiful rose motifs is a mystery, one could assume it alludes to the act of hope and growth amidst the odds, staying soft while being strong and continuing to bloom year after year. We love this displayed prominently on open shelving, on a nightstand in a cottage-style bedroom or as a thoughtful gift for the defiant rose lover in your life.
