About the Item

Silverplate Meat Trolley Elkington & Co. Circa 1880 A magnificent example of dining luxury, this silverplate meat serving trolley was crafted by the renowned Elkington & Co., celebrated for blending technical innovation with elegant design. This rare carving trolley exemplifies the firm’s mastery of both refinement and functionality. The trolley displays a beautiful rollback domed cover that glides open to reveal its fitted interior, complete with a cutting tray, two covered sauce containers and a hot water trough to ensure meats are served at the ideal temperature. A double burner positioned below provides warming heat. The entire mechanism is mounted upon an elegant mahogany base. The result is a functional masterpiece that would have been the centerpiece of any grand dining occasion. Elkington & Co., founded in Birmingham in the mid-1830s, earned international renown as pioneers of electroplating. Their patented electroplating process transformed the silver industry by enabling the creation of elegantly plated wares at unprecedented scale and quality. By the mid-19th century, Elkington held royal warrants and supplied fine silver and silverplate to courts and institutions across Europe, cementing their status as one of Britain’s most important silversmithing firms.
