Fabulous Piercework \u0026 Angel Head Handles. Fitted Case","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese are a late Victorian or early Edwardian era pair of matching hallmarked silver bon-bon dishes. The detail on them is totally exquisite.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey have a hallmark for Birmingham 1901 and a maker's mark for William Devenport, as photographed. The dishes are in a pristine antique condition with no inscriptions, monograms or damages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey come in their original fitted case. This is a hard dark leatherette finish to the outside, and  inside there is a cream silk lid. There is a a fitted dark blue velvet base section. The case is not in perfect condition,  but rather it is in good antique condition. It is is hinged with a little finger press stud to open. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey take the shape of a Scottish quaich but are of course little decorative bon-bon dishes. Your would use them to pop little peppermints or after-dinner digestive mints in and to pass around to your guests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, they look just lovely as display items in your silver collection. I love the four little winged angel head handles on each side of the bowl. These are very sweet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is not so much weight in the little bowls due to the fine fretwork or open pierce work decoration, The interest in these wee dishes lies in the skillful making and attractive design of each one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe weight of the pair is: 92 grams\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: handle to handle is 14.6 cm. The diameter of the bowl is 8 inches. The height of each bowl is 3.5 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUK Postage will be with Royal Mail Tracked postage. This will be applied at checkout.
