Bride's baskets became popular in the mid-19th century and were used to display the bridal bouquet or as part of the table setting at the wedding reception. They are now considered collectible antiques. The style of the basket in the image appears to be influenced by Art Nouveau or Jugendstil, known for flowing lines and natural motifs.

The glass bowl with a turquoise rim and opalescent striping stands atop a silver plated Art Nouveau style stand with delicate feet.

Brilliant condition, no chips or cracks to glass, EPNS stand it in fantastic condition also, and have been sensitively polished to restore this item it's former glory.
