Cocktail shaker (2) - Composite - French wine basket

Forgotten in my mother's mountain closet and unused for decades, thus in good condition with only minor signs of use and age, here is a charming set of bar or table accessories for which I can't decipher the punch marks indicating silver, silver-plated, or chrome-plated/argentated steel. 1) Wine basket—I'm not sure if it's of French or Italian origin; the French version is silver-plated. The basket features an intricate shiny silver lattice pattern that creates a refined geometric design. The elegant curved handles are crafted with skilled twisting and interlacing, a testament to artisanal craftsmanship. The oval shape with raised edges provides stability and allows it to hold standard wine bottles. With a length of 26 cm and a weight of 351 g, this versatile accessory has the right dimensions for standard wine bottles. The silver plating is in good condition, consistent with its age, maintaining a reflective finish across the entire braided surface, with no broken or loose wires visible. 2) Regular cocktail shaker, 500 ml, 20 cm tall and 9 cm in diameter, and weight 282 g; in stainless steel or silvered metal, it is the indispensable tool for mixing ice and the other ingredients of your favorite drink. The items will be carefully packed and shipped with trackable delivery. If won or paid after November 4, they will be shipped only on November 13 due to being away from Milan.
