Title: Sowerby 972 Uranium Basket

I thought Greener at first but it is shown here in the Sowerby Book XI 1885, top of P.2 in round and oval, although it's difficult to see. thewingedsphinx posted a clear one in 2018 with the same identification. Mine has a lot of chips but I'm  ;D

Thanks LinzC, it's been in a local antiques centre for ages and I didn't buy it because of the damage, but I saw it again and couldn't resist it  ;D
