Pair of Silver-Mounted Decorative Vessels - Vintage Tableware Set








Item Description


A striking pair of decorative vessels featuring distinctive silver-plated metal mounts and rims, characteristic of mid-20th century formal tableware design. The set comprises two complementary pieces:




Vessel 1: Pedestal Bowl with Flared Rim


A shallow, wide-bowled pedestal vessel with a classical urn-like silhouette. The piece features a substantial silver-plated decorative rim with fine beaded detailing around the upper edge. The bowl body exhibits warm patina tones consistent with age and use, whilst the interior retains a polished finish. The pedestal base is proportionally balanced, creating an elegant presentation piece suitable for formal table settings or display.




Vessel 2: Two-Handled Urn with Flared Collar


A more formal urn-shaped vessel with pronounced twin handles featuring ornamental scrollwork terminals. The piece displays a flared collar rim with matching silver-plated beaded detailing. The body exhibits a lustrous polished finish with visible patina marks and surface character. The proportioned base provides stable support, and the overall form suggests use as a serving piece or decorative centrepiece.




Materials & Construction


Both vessels feature substantial silver-plated metal mounts and rim work, suggesting quality mid-century manufacture. The bowl bodies appear to be ceramic or earthenware with a warm, aged patina. The silver plating shows authentic wear patterns consistent with vintage use and age.
