This Edwardian silver-plated cake basket originates from around 1900, capturing a classic English Country House style in electroplated nickel silver with a bright silver finish. The piece takes an oval form with an open-work pierced reticulated rim that displays delicate patterned cut-outs around the bowl. A rope-twist swing handle arches over the top, secured by small pivoting mounts at each side, while the entire vessel is supported underneath by four decorative cast leaf feet shaped like ornate paws. Measuring 22 cm high, 25 cm wide, and 21.5 cm deep, this basket sits comfortably on a sideboard top to hold small decorative items, fruit, or sweets in a living room, dining room, or hallway. The reflective surface and traditional metalwork coordinate easily with classic and transitional interior schemes, providing a functional tabletop accessory with period character.

FAQs

During the Edwardian era, cake baskets were functional dining items used to serve sliced cakes, pastries, or fruits during afternoon tea and formal dinners.

These items were typically crafted using Electroplated Nickel Silver (EPNS), where a layer of pure silver was electrochemically deposited onto a base metal, often incorporating machine-pierced fretwork and cast handles.

Authentic pieces generally display maker marks such as EPNS, manufacturer trade stamps, or design registration numbers, alongside period-typical details like soldered cast feet and hand-finished borders.

In contemporary settings, these baskets function effectively as dining table centrepieces, decorative key trays on a console table, or display vessels for fruit on a kitchen island.

Clean the surface gently using a soft cotton cloth and a specialised non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh scrubbing or prolonged immersion in water to prevent wear to the silver layer.
