Chapel Farm Collection Estate Basket

This piece is crafted from silver plate, which was a standard for high-quality decorative serveware during the early 20th century.

To preserve the finish, use a gentle, non-abrasive silver polish specifically formulated for plated items. Avoid harsh chemicals or dishwasher use, as these can strip the plating and damage the delicate pierced detailing.

While it was historically designed for serving, we recommend using it primarily for decorative purposes or for holding dry, non-acidic items like wrapped candies or decorative spheres. If you choose to serve food, line the basket with a decorative napkin to protect the silver surface.

This indicates the piece is an antique from the turn of the 20th century. You should expect natural signs of age, such as light patina or minor surface wear, which are typical for authentic vintage silver plate and contribute to its character.

The basket features a classic round silhouette with intricate pierced metalwork. Because it is a vintage piece, it has a substantial feel compared to modern reproductions, making it stable enough to serve as a centerpiece or a functional catch-all.
