The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Popularised during the 19th century, swing-handled silver-plated baskets were functional tableware items used for serving bread, cakes, or fruit during formal dining and afternoon tea.

These pieces were typically manufactured by electroplating a thin layer of pure silver onto a nickel silver or brass base metal, often finished with stamped or cast borders and hand-engraved details.

Look for maker marks such as EPNS or EPBM stamps, period-appropriate hand engraving, cast scroll rims, and natural age-related wear where the base metal shows through at high points.

Place the basket as a dining table centrepiece filled with seasonal fruit, or style it on a sideboard or console table to add reflective metal tones to the space.

Clean gently using a soft cloth and a specialised, non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh chemicals or excessive rubbing that could wear away the silver layer.
