Vintage St. Edmund Restaurant Covered Silverplate Dish
$78.00
Found at market in England, we are smitten with this gleaming Vintage Covered Serving Dish. Produced by the esteemed silversmiths at Elkington & Co., these divided covered silverplate dishes were a versatile serving piece traditionally used for presenting and keeping multiple offerings warm and preserving their separation during a meal. The versatile divided base and cleverly designed lid retain heat and also permit the presentation of different dishes without mixing flavors or ingredients. Also handy for presenting nuts, bonbons and other small treats as well as seasonal fruit, this attractive pair has many possible uses.
Produced by fine legacy silversmith to the hospitality industry, Elkington, and prominently side stamped with a production year of 1932, this sculptural covered dish hails from the historic St. Edmund Restaurant. With its sleek aesthetic, this beautiful piece promises to serve well in a variety of functions, from traditional use as a serving dish to an elegant office accessory, vide poche or entryway catch-all.
Original price $125. Strictly one-of-a-kind and subject to prior sale. In very good vintage condition with slight wear consistent with restaurant use. 7"D x 3"H.
