HAUNTED Antique Reed & Barton Silver Plate Basket w/ Bird on Handle

Description

Features:
I bought this piece at an estate sale in Romeo, Michigan.  The Victorian three story mansion had long been abandoned...along with much of the contents.  This basket had been in one of the first floor rooms.  HOWEVER...here's the interesting part:  The floor rotted and actually fell into the creepy, eerie cellar.  That is where this item was eventually discovered...unbroken but quite filthy.  After a thorough washing, I was amazed at how stunning the detail was!  I wonder how long this piece sat in that dismal, dank cellar.  Let's hope no spirits attached themselves to it!
I've included a photo of the home's upper floor collapsing on to the first floor.
