Condition

This antique sterling silver fruit basket is a very good gauge of silver, fine quality and in exceptional condition.

The basket has been professionally polished and is in presentation condition.

Full hallmarks struck to the surface of the well of the basket and part hallmarks to the handle are all very clear; the first portion of the maker's mark has wear due to the location, but remains legible.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this antique silver basket.

Andrew Campbell started trading in antiques during the 1970s. Initially, Andrew lived in the South of England, travelling the country, searching for items of silver to buy. Andrew sold these items at various London markets and antique fairs. Over time, and through selling at a range of venues, Andrew built up a large and diverse customer base from private buyers to national and international trade customers.
