Antique Georgian Scottish Sterling Silver Tazza / Centerpiece

About the Item

An exceptional, fine and impressive, rare antique George I Scottish sterling silver tazza; part of our Georgian silverware collection. This exceptional antique George I Scottish sterling silver tazza has a plain circular form onto a cylindrical pedestal foot. The surface of the tazza is plain and unembellished apart from the silversmiths centre punch mark. The rim of this antique tazza is encompassed with an applied moulded border. The underside of the tazza is embellished with the contemporary engraved initials 'CAM'. This exceptional example of Georgian silverware has a fine color and patination. Such period examples in Scottish sterling silver are becoming increasingly scarce to the market. Patination or Patina is a subtle coloration or tarnish which forms on the surface of some metals, produced by oxidation or other chemical processes. A good patina proffers an aesthetically pleasing look. Condition This antique tazza is an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition. Full hallmarks to the surface of the tazza are all very clear, in keeping with age; the lion passant mark is worn but remains legible. Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this example of antique silverware.
