    Hi,
    The below item I bought it because my sons like the idea of a sweets basket, however, I don’t know if the frame is made of sterling silver. I took it to be tested and it came out sterling silver, but I wonder if it’s sterling silver plate. The hallmarks ai found are in the second photo.
    Also, what is the maker’s name, how old is it and is it used its store sweets? IMG_7177.jpeg IMG_7178.jpeg
    Thank you.

    Seconded. FET& Co if I'm reading it properly. The piece would have proper marks it if were silver. They usually weren't. What's surprising is that the liner survived.
