1897 Victorian Solid Silver Bread Basket / Fruit Bowl By Martin Hall & Co. 240g

  
Lovely 1897 Victorian Bread Basket, Fruit Bowl, Dish. Styled in the Art Nouveau Style.

Full English Silver Hallmarks for Martin Hall and Co. The bowl has extensive hand pierced & engraved detail to the to the sides and top with repoussed vines and bunches of grapes also to the sides. This is a really beautiful bowl oozing character; displaying hand craftmanship skills not seen today. Presented in very good used and pre-loved antique condition no nasty dents, splits, tears or repairs. Minor bruising to the base, sits flat with no wobble.

Minor scratches to be expected from a used item of this age, much less than would be considered commensurate. Some softening of the engraved detail and repousse work. This piece is already in circulation meaning no new silver has been used. The ultimate in sustainable shopping.

There may be the odd age related wear/mark commensurate with age, anything of note is listed above. Please see all photos using the zoom function available, as they constitute the item description. Please note where possible packaging is recycled.
