I don't use the word rare lightly, but I have not found another one like this in all of my hunts - a Georgian fruit basket set with an aqua blue “Bon Soir” intaglio at its base. The basket handle acts as a large bale and the piece can be worn on any chain. I love the detailing on the basket and the vibrant colour of the base. The gilding on the basket shows signs of wear commensurate with age. This is just such a sweet, cool, totally unique piece.
Materials: Gilded metal, paste
Size: Intaglio measures 14mm long x 6mm wide. Basket is 23mm high.
Condition: Good antique condition. Basket finish shows signs of wear. Intaglio is in very good condition.
