It’s a Victorian-style silverplate “bride’s basket”/trophy form holder with a removable cranberry glass insert. The insert is a thumbprint (coin spot) pattern in deep cranberry; the metal frame has two scrolled side handles, a wide foot, and applied rococo cartouches. The number “100” stamped under the base is likely a model/part number from the plating firm, not sterling content.
