Regular price
$2,270.00
Presented is a fabulous quality English sterling silver handled basket. This piece is by C.J. Vander and dates to the year 2000. This basket is wonderfully well made, with lovely pierced work around the sides in designs of flowing scrolls and leaves. At each of the four quadrant points around the basket is a blank cartouche, and there is a blank cartouche on the top of the handle as well, none of which have ever been monogrammed. The handle holds its position when it is upright, and the hinge mechanism is nicely done. The basket has a decorative beaded rim.
This piece is in excellent condition. There are no splits, no breaks, no dents, no cracks, no monograms, no monogram removals, and no repairs.
This piece is hallmarked on the side with the lion passant for sterling silver, the Tudor rose for the city of Sheffield, the date letter Z for 2000 as well as the date spelled out, 925 for sterling purity, and the maker's mark for C.J. Vander.
The rim of the basket is about 3 3/4 inches tall.
With the handle raised, the piece stands about 9 1/4 inches tall.
This piece weighs 519 grams or 18.3 regular ounces.
