Vintage Silver-Plated Mini Basket with Swing Handle | 3"
Vintage Silver-Plated Mini Basket with Swing Handle | 3"
A charming little vintage silver-toned basket with an embossed basket-weave pattern, rope-style trim around the rim, and a movable swing handle. At just 3 inches wide, this petite piece is perfect for adding a bit of old-world character to a vanity, bookshelf, tabletop, or styled vignette.
Use it as a tiny trinket dish, ring holder, catchall, Easter display basket, place-card holder, or simply display it alongside other vintage silver pieces.
The finish shows noticeable age-related patina, tarnish, discoloration, surface wear, and oxidation, particularly on the interior and handle. I would not identify it as sterling silver without a hallmark; comparable examples are generally described as silver-plated metal. Similar small silver-plated baskets are currently offered around $13–$15 on the lower end, while specialty vintage sellers ask considerably more.
