Description

Purchased at an estate sale. I've polished it and it looks great! This is a large basket  -- please note that there are others for sale on this site that look like it but have smaller dimensions.
Produced by Derby Silver Company, which was owned by International Silver. Style #1232. Also marked EPWM, which means electroplated white metal. Based on research of this company, I believe this basket was made after 1898 and before 1940.
This stunning centerpiece basket is 6-sided. It is firm and sturdy, but the decorative elements give it a very delicate appearance. The repousse decoration consists of courtship images all amidst a myriad of Rococo scrolls and florals. The detail work is astounding on this piece. Please see all photos and read condition note. Thanks!
