    Antique English One Handle Silver Plate Serving Basket – Greek Key Design
    No table setting would be complete without a one handled, whimsical silver plate serving basket that can be carried around the table to serve each guest; or, to pass from one guest to another in a more informal manner. They can be used to serve toasts, rolls, biscuits, breads, for example during the main meal. Then whisks away to the pantry to be re-filled with various delicacies for the dessert table. While fancy & fun, they are oh so practical & pretty.
    The basket we selected for our ‘blue on blue’ dinner is an elegant basket in a distinctive pattern - the Greek Key design. It is round with a pedestal stand & handle. It measures 10 inches in diameter, & 9 inches tall with handle raised. It is decorated around the rim of the basket bowl and around bottom stand in Greek key pattern. This pattern symbolizes infinity or eternity, the eternal flow of things, & also unity. What better symbol for a beautiful evening with wonderful friends!
