This is a magnificent, heavy-duty silver-plated oval centerpiece bowl (often referred to as a "Bridal Basket") crafted by the renowned Gorham Mfg. Co.

Both ends of the bowl are adorned with a detailed face/mask.

Finish: The silver plating still holds a beautiful luster but shows a light, natural patina. Condition: Used. Category: Collectibles › Decorative Collectibles › Other Decorative Collectibles.
