Artist in eatery getting bottle (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

carafe

'bottle' is the definition.
(carafe is a kind of bottle)

'artist in eatery' is the wordplay.
'artist' becomes 'RA' (Royal Academician, member of Royal Academy of Arts).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'eatery' becomes 'cafe' (type of eatery).
'ra' put within 'cafe' is 'CARAFE'.

'getting' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for carafe that I've seen before include "Decanter" , "Wide-necked bottle for water or wine" , "Wide-necked bottle for the table" , "Open-topped container for wine or water" , "It may provide drink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
