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.

Elkington & Co. Silver Inkwell Of Henry Morton Stanley
By Elkington & Co.
Located in New Orleans, LA
This exceptional sterling silver inkwell was presented to Henry Morton Stanley, the famed Welsh-American journalist, politician and explorer, on the occasion of his marriage to Dorothy Tennant. The inkwell was a royal gift from the Prince of Wales, the future King George V, and the Princess of Wales. The charming inkstand was designed by Walter & John Barnard for the royal silversmiths Elkington & Co., and no detail was spared in its creation. Each inkwell bears Stanley’s monogram, while the crest of the Prince and Princess adorns the delicately pierced tray. The inscription reads, “To H. M. Stanley on the occasion of his marriage / From the Prince & Princess of Wales / July 12th, 1880.”
Born in Wales, Henry Morton Stanley’s lifetime of adventure began at the young age of 15 when he crossed the Atlantic aboard a merchant vessel and jumped ship in New Orleans. The young orphan was taken in by a local merchant named Henry Morton Stanley, whose name he took as his own. Stanley began a career as a journalist and was commissioned by the New York Herald to go to Central Africa in search of the famous missionary David Livingstone...
