This Edwardian sterling silver basket takes an organic Art Nouveau form, featuring a polished silver finish against a muted blue backdrop and a white surface. The rounded bowl sits upon a circular pedestal base with a subtle moulding, accompanied by an overhead whiplash handle that flows down into curved side supports with scrolled decoration. Engraved hallmarks appear clearly on the exterior bowl wall, and the circular base exhibits a slight wobble. Dimensions measure 13 cm high, 12 cm wide, and 12 cm deep. Positioned on a sideboard top, this piece fits naturally within an English Country House interior. It serves as a decorative display object or a small container for holding trinkets in a living room, dining room, or hallway. The solid silver construction and fluid handle design provide a functional tabletop accent for traditional and period homes.

FAQs

Art Nouveau silver design, prominent from the 1890s to 1910, is characterised by flowing organic forms, whiplash lines, and naturalistic motifs that depart from rigid Victorian geometry.

Antique silver baskets were typically crafted from sterling silver using techniques such as hand-raising, casting, piercing, and chased decoration over a turned pedestal base.

Authentic British sterling silver features official assay office hallmarks, including the lion passant purity mark, a makers mark, a town mark, and a date letter stamped directly onto the surface.

Position the piece on a sideboard, dining table, or console, where its polished finish catches light and serves as a decorative vessel for fruit, wrapped confectionery, or floral displays.

Gently clean with a soft cotton cloth and specialised silver polish to remove tarnish, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads that could wear down delicate surfaces.
