FAQs

An Edwardian silver cake basket is a decorative tabletop vessel crafted from sterling silver during the reign of King Edward VII (19011910) or the immediate post-Edwardian years, typically featuring pierced fretwork, a pedestal base, and a central swing handle.

These baskets were shaped from sheet sterling silver, with openwork fretwork achieved through hand-piercing or mechanical punching techniques, finished with solder-mounted handles and cast or shaped pedestal bases.

Authentic Sheffield pieces display official British hallmarks stamped into the metal, including the Sheffield crown, the lion passant for sterling silver, a date letter matching the era, and a makers mark such as HC&Co for Hammond, Creake & Co.

Position the basket on a sideboard, dining table, or console as a decorative focal point, either unadorned to highlight the metalwork or filled with dry botanical elements or packaged confections.

Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and polish occasionally using a specialized silver polish applied with a soft cloth to remove tarnish, avoiding abrasive cleaners or prolonged immersion in water.
