declaration
The Fancy Fox has clarified that the Georgian Silver Wirework Cream Pail / Sugar Basket c.1790 (LA214037) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being c.1790
condition
Condition is very good. There is a very small slither chip to the outside edge of the liner but this is minimally detracting. No losses or damage to the silver, there is very fractional distortion to the frame in places and slightly to the handle as is often the case with wirework pieces but it is very minor.
