Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

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

Silver-plated fruit baskets gained widespread popularity during the nineteenth century following the invention of electroplating in the 1840s. These pieces allowed Victorian households to display elaborate dining accessories that mimicked solid sterling silver at a more accessible cost.

These items were typically manufactured from base metals such as nickel silver, copper, or Britannia metal, which were then electroplated with a layer of pure silver. Decorative details were added through chasing, engraving, or cast metal appliques.

Authentic pieces generally feature manufacturer stamps such as EPNS for electroplated nickel silver or specific maker marks. Period examples often exhibit fine hand-engraved motifs, hinged swing handles, and natural wear where the base metal may subtly show through.

A silver-plated basket functions effectively as a focal point on a dining table, kitchen island, or sideboard. It can be left empty to showcase its internal engraving or filled with fresh fruit, decorative foliage, or linens.

Clean silver plate gently using a soft cloth and specialised silver polish formulated for plated items. Avoid harsh abrasives or dishwasher cleaning, as thin silver layers can wear away over time.
