Victorian silver swing handle basket with red glass liner, the body of scroll open work form,...

There are some surface wear and tear scratches and slight tarnishing to detailing. The basket wobbles very slightly on the table. The swing handle moves quite fluidly. The glass insert is in a good condition with a few very small nicks along the top edge and there are some bubbles in the glass, as made. The engraving to the cartouche is slightly rubbed, there are two numerous splits, some repaired and two cracks to the applied rim. The solder join to one side of the basket is becoming visible. There are corresponding hallmarks to the handle and the base, one of the handle hallmarks is indistinctly stamped but the others are clear and legible.
