About the Item
This stunning antique flower basket, crafted in Germany circa 1890, showcases the elegance of 800 standard silver paired with a striking ruby-red glass liner. Featuring ornate pierced work and richly chased repoussé panels, the basket’s design is adorned with charming putti (cherubs), rococo scrolls, and florals, highlighting the craftsmanship of the late 19th century. Elevated on four elegantly scrolled feet and crowned with a decorative swing handle, this piece balances artistic detail with structural beauty.
The removable ruby glass liner adds both a vivid splash of colour and functional appeal, making it ideal for floral arrangements, decorative centrepieces, or as a collector’s display item. Its delicate form and romantic motifs make it a conversation piece in any fine interior.
Whether you're an avid silver collector, interior designer, or seeking a singular luxury gift, this antique silver flower basket is a rare find—evoking European finery and old-world charm. A true testament to 19th-century continental silverwork.
The flower basket measures 13.5"(34.5cm) tall, by 11"(28cm) wide, by 10.5"(26.5cm) deep and weighs 23.01 troy ounces.
