SILVER PLATE FRUIT BOWL

I discovered this wonderful silver plate fruit bowl the other day at the flea market. Some people might not consider it a good buy, as most of the silver is worn off, and it really should be replated, but for $2.00, it wasn't the silver that appealed to me  I was amazed at the delightful meadow scene that decorates the bowl. So intricate, warm and exciting!  I have discovered birds, bugs, snails and flowers delicately ornamenting the rim of the bowl. It is about 10 inches around with 3 feet.  The metal is warm toned, and perfect for holding apples on my kitchen island!
