The basket displays general wear including surface scratches, marks, slight knocks and tarnishing. Remnants of polish visible. The handle and fruiting vine rim are quite tarnished and dirty and the whole basket would benefit from a clean and polish. Some possible small repairs to rim. Heavier scratches and marks to some areas, especially the interior base. The basket appears to only bear Italian hallmarks to the outer rim, which is fixed to the central base section. Some parts may not be .800 silver. The marks are legible but a little distorted.
