About the Item

A sterling silver breadbasket manufactured by Meriden Britannia. Measuring 11 inches by 7 inches, this elegant oval basket combines refined craftsmanship with timeless design. The border features a delicate reticulated pattern—an openwork design of repeating scrolls and geometric elements—that adds a sense of lightness and refinement to the form. The center of the basket is flat and unadorned, providing a sleek, polished surface that beautifully contrasts with the ornate border and offers an ideal presentation area for bread or rolls. Crafted in solid sterling silver and stamped with the Meriden Britannia hallmark, this piece reflects the company’s renowned quality and attention to detail during the late 19th to early 20th century. Its size makes it versatile for both formal dining and elegant display, while the restrained decoration and clean lines lend it a classic appeal that suits both traditional and modern settings.
