Basket
Large, uniformly thick sheets of silver became available in the 18th century. This made it possible for the first time to perforate broad surfaces, such as the walls of baskets. Ideally, this openwork technique was combined with engraving. Because the trelliswork and rosettes here are worked with a burin, they stand out more than the ornamental borders.
