Paul Storr 1800s Antique Sterling Silver Meat Platter

About the Item

A magnificent, fine and impressive antique Georgian English sterling silver meat platter made by Paul Storr, an addition to our dining silverware collection. This magnificent antique George III sterling silver meat platter has an oval shaped form with a sunken plain oval central well. The well of this silver platter is plain and unembellished. The raised shaped border is ornamented with a contemporary bright cut engraved marital coat of arms above two-tied branches. The rim of this impressive example of Georgian silverware is encompassed with an applied tied reed decorated border accented with crossed branches to each incurve. This magnificent meat platter was crafted by the renowned and collectable London silversmith Paul Storr. This piece is a segment of a more extensive table service incorporating dishes, trays and platters, through time the service will have been divided. This coat of arms pertains to the marriage of Pelham and Aufrère in 1770. Charles Anderson-Pelham was the later first Baron of Yarborough (1748-1823) and his wife Sophia Aufrère, the only daughter and heiress of George Aufrère Esq of Chelsea. Condition This antique silver meat platter is an exceptional gauge of silver as to be expected of this maker. The platter is exceptional quality and in exceptional, original condition. The underside of the platter has some natural fire marks in keeping with age. There are some surface knife scratches to the well of the platter, in keeping with the age and purpose. The bright cut engraved decoration is very crisp and the applied decoration is very sharp. Full hallmarks struck to the underside of the platter are all very clear. Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this example of Georgian silverware.
