BRIDES BASKET

• American Silverplate "Bride's
  American Silverplate "Bride's Basket", fourth quarter 19th century, by the Wilcox Silver Plate Co., Meriden, Connecticut, of circular form with scalloped rim, the hinged semicircular handle with rosebud finial, the whole raised on a figural standard of a feminine hand holding branches with trailing vines, raised on a circular base with four engraved triangular feet, h. 8-3/4" (15" with handle), dia. 9-1/2". Intended to hold flowers, fruit or teacakes, baskets such as this are often called "bride's baskets" owing to their popularity in the 1870's and 1880's as wedding presents to newlyweds. The iconography here - the hand, symbolic of marriage, the rosebud, symbolic of romance, and the trailing vines, symbolic of union - leaves little doubt as to its original sentiment.
