Victorian Veldon silver plate sweetmeat basket

This lovely example of a victorian or art nouveau sweetmeat basket is in silverplate by a company named Veldon. It has very nice scroll open work and is in great condition, although there is a minute bit of corrosion (which the price reflects). It measures 3 1/2 in. It was used in victorian times to hold little confections on a elaborately laid out dessert table. Circa late 1800's. Enjoy!
