  • Brand: Webster
  • Type: Baskets
  • Pattern: Century
  • Composition: Silverplate
  • Style: Victorian
  • Condition: The basket has small silver losses and scratches, as well as a few small dents. The basket used to have a handle but lost it at one point. It still has the bead decorations below the edge where the handle used to be, but the edge has been ground off. It actually still looks very good and it still shines well. By removing the handle, the basket actually works much better as a centerpiece than it would have with one.
  • Age: 1850-1899
