Antique EPNS Silver Pierced Edwardian Celery Server with Glass Insert

About the Item

Lovely EPNS (Electro Plated Nickel Silver) hand pierced cylindrical Edwardian serving piece (most likely for serving celery stalks or the like) with original fluted glass insert. Could have multiple modern-day uses from a vase to a pencil holder to a catch-all. It is clearly marked on the base of the silver sleeve as: Sheffield Design Made in USA HMC (Homan Manufacturing Co.) EPNS 9021 (piece number) Three makers marks: a crown, a lion with a hat, and a hand Based on my research, this was manufactured by Homan Manufacturing Company located in Cincinnati, Ohio, from 1847 to 1941. This piece dates to between 1904 and 1915. The Sheffield reference is for the EPNS process, which was created by English silver company Sheffield. The glass insert measures: 3-1/2" tall x 3-1/2" wide at top x 2-5/8" wide at base The silver sleeve measures: 2-7/8" tall x 2-3/4" diameter The plate has been recently polished; it appears the silver plate has worn off in the darker areas.
