An assortment of silver-plated metal tablewares comprising various functional and ornamental pieces. The group includes a three-light candelabrum featuring scrolled arms, decorative sconces, and a pedestal base with foliate and beaded borders. Trays within the collection consist of a large circular salver with a densely etched foliate centre and ornate scroll-and-gadroon rim, a plain circular tray with a simple raised edge, and a smaller rectangular stand with pierced decoration. Hollowware pieces include a tall insulated thermal jug with a hinged lid and curved handle, a flared bud vase on a weighted base, and a pedestal bowl with a beaded rim. The group further contains two open bowls with pierced metal frames containing cobalt blue glass liners, a small pierced metal stand, a lidded shell-shaped butter dish, and a shell-shaped open dish with a cast swan-neck handle, accompanied by a small serving spoon.
Condition report:
The items exhibit general signs of age and use, including surface tarnish and light scratches. Notable wear to the silver plating is present on the interior of the pedestal bowl and at the joins of the thermal jug, revealing the base metal beneath. No structural repairs or major dents are visible.
