An early 20th century oval cake basket with pierced sides designed at the height of the Art Nouveau period in 1905 by Manx-born designer and teacher Archibald Knox (1864-1933) for Liberty & Co. of London.

The basket has a wonderful patina but can be polished to a highly reflective surface, if desired. Fully marked underfoot: 6 / RD459547 [1905 registration number] / ENGLISH PEWTER / MADE BY LIBERTY & CO / 0535.
