This Flora Danica large oval pierced fruit basket is quite special. It is an usually large size, about 10-1/4" long including the handles, 7-1/2" wide, 3-1/2" high. The hand painted plums in the center of the bowl, identified as Prunus domestica L. on the bottom, form the best decoration I have ever seen in the center of these baskets. The full Royal Copenhagen marks appear on the bottom. The basket dates to about the second half of the 20th century. The condition is excellent, no damage to any of the flowers, no cracks, chips or wear to the gold. This type of basket sells for about $16,000 at retail.
