A lovely and rare antique circa early 1900s silver plated bread or pastry serving basket from The Plaza Hotel in New York City! In great condition, no dents or damage, but there are lots of fine surface marks, pin points, and signs of use you would expect from old hotel silver that was used daily. There is mild to moderate tarnish that will polish up beautifully, if desired with the exception of some fitting plate along the base edge and raise the decoration. Marked on the top ends with the Plaza’s iconic double P logo, and on the base with “The Plaza”

measures approximately 11 inches long by 6.5 inches wide at the widest point by 1.75 inches deep.
