About the Item

This 19th-century silver-plated panetière (bread basket) showcases an exquisite design that combines artistry with utility. Crafted with a silver-plated finish, its elongated oval shape is adorned with intricate details, highlighting the refined craftsmanship of the period. The handles, which are modeled after stylized Eagles heads, add a regal and dramatic touch to the piece, emphasizing a motif that was both decorative and symbolic in 19th-century French tableware. The detailed engravings on the handles, resembling feathers and intricate patterns, reflect a high level of skill. The bowl itself is bordered with a delicate patterned edge, enhancing its elegance and symmetry. The interior bears visible signs of use, with light scratches and marks that add character and speak to its history as a functional yet decorative object. Such silver-plated panetières were often used in formal settings, either to serve bread or to display fruits, highlighting their dual purpose of utility and aesthetic enhancement. The ornate detailing on this piece suggests that it might have been commissioned for a wealthy household or a special occasion. Its remarkable craftsmanship and timeless design make it a valuable example of antique European silver-plated tableware, appealing to collectors and admirers of fine 19th-century decorative arts.
