Basilico is one of the ceramic teapots of The Indian Memory Collection designed by Ettore Sottsass in the 1970s and named after the Italian word for "basil" due to its leaf green color. The collection includes six teapots and fruit bowls, whose dusty and opaque shades reflected the idea of containing the echo of the Indian temples.
