Thomas Hayes (1898) Sterling silver large trinket dish embossed with Green Man masks, scrolls and flowers - Panier à bonbons (1) - Argent 925
Victorian sterling silver openwork bonbon basket. Oval bowl with a serpentine edge is ornately pierced all over with a geometric rhombus design. The body is further decorated with embossed scrolls and flowers in typical Art Nouveau style of the period, and trimmed with a pie-crust border. There are four repoussé depictions of the Green Man mask - an architectural motif that originated in late Roman art from leaf masks used to represent gods and mythological figures.
Wonderfully ornate trinket dish that would be a great vide poche on a dressing table, or perhaps be used to serve sweets at teatime.
