The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Pierced silver baskets became prominent during the eighteenth century and remained popular through the Edwardian period. They were designed primarily for serving sweetmeats, cakes, or fruit at formal dining occasions.

These items are crafted from sterling silver, requiring hand-piercing or mechanical die-cutting to create intricate fretwork, alongside cast and soldered components such as swing handles and rim borders.

Authentic British pieces feature a complete set of hallmarks, including the lion passant for sterling quality, an assay office mark, a date letter, and a registered makers mark.

A silver basket functions effectively as a focal point on a dining table, a decorative accent on a sideboard top, or a tray for small accessories on a dressing table.

Maintain silver by polishing periodically with a specialised silver cream and soft cloth. Store in low-humidity environments or anti-tarnish bags to prevent oxidisation.
