Vintage Sterling Silver Fruit Basket - Sheffield 1909

Product Code: 035-00300
USD
Please note this unique find has signs of age expected from over a century of history.

This elegant sterling silver fruit basket is hallmarked Sheffield 1909 and crafted by Thomas Bradbury & Sons, one of Sheffield's oldest silver houses, with a lineage tracing back to 1795 and among the very first firms to register a mark at the Sheffield Assay Office.

The basket takes a generous round form, rising on a raised pedestal foot and fitted with a graceful twisted swing handle, a hallmark feature of quality Edwardian presentation pieces designed for the tea or dining table. The exterior is finely chased with oval cartouches framed by flowing foliage and floral scrollwork, a decorative language typical of the Edwardian era's fondness for flowing lines and hand-worked botanical detail.

Measuring 35cm in width and 13cm in height, this is a substantial and eye-catching piece, well suited to serving fruit or bread at the table or displayed as a striking centrepiece in its own right. Its fine craftsmanship and clear maker's provenance make it a rewarding find for collectors of Edwardian silver and English silversmithing history.

Width: 35cm
Height: 13cm

Romance of the Past

Vintage

For centuries, jewellery has been an important part of human cultures - a symbol of prestige, a means of spiritual protection, and a reflection of the mood and values of the time.  Each era speaks of the political and social climate it is a part of, an aesthetic and meaning which is a small slice of the bigger picture, captured in every unique piece.

Walker & Hall’s Vintage Collection is a considered curation of only the finest examples from each time, providing rare and remarkable illustrations of our human history.
