Antique Solid Silver Gilt Charger Sideboard Dish (50cm) with Battle Scene 19th c
About the Item
We are delighted to offer this magnificent solid silver gilt charger/sideboard dish made in the mid-late 19th century.
Impressive in size and presence, this dish is certainly an eye-catching and ornate piece of silverware - whether be it in an antique setting or as a juxtaposing piece in a contemporary setting, this dish would serve as a historic and opulent centrepiece.
The dish features a raised border with a hand-chased wreath of various fruit and foliate motifs. Centrally, a figural battle scene is finely chased and engraved with great detail and meticulousness. The scene depicts the battle of Carravagio (15 September 1448) - Venetian commanders Ermolao Donato and Gerardo Dandolo refuse to save themselves against Francesco Sforza.
The detail of the soldier's armour and the height of the relief is a testament to its quality chasing work and creates a wonderful contrast and three-dimensional effect separated from its background. Furthermore, with the front side of the dish being fully gilded (gold on top of solid silver), it makes a bold and majestic impression to the viewer whether be it to the untrained eye or a seasoned silver enthusiast.
Whilst splendid as a display centrepiece or on a sideboard, owing to its generous proportions and shape, it could also be used practically, almost in a salver-like fashion with a touch of creativity: fruit, bread or canapés etc. Additionally, its gilding will serve as a layer of protection to prevent the dish from tarnishing with the content placed on top.
Overall, a magnificent silver-gilt sideboard dish with the versatility of both displaying and practicality.
Six hallmarks are present on the edge of the dish which are of Hanau origin.

Antique Victorian Solid Silver Gilt Naturalistic Leaf Spoon Pair, 1842
By Sebastian Crespel II
Located in London, GB
We are delighted to offer this fine and exquisite pair of early Victorian solid silver tea spoons made in London 1842 with the maker's mark of Sebastian Crespell.
The pair features a highly ornate and desirable 'naturalistic' design with the entirety of the spoon-shaped as a leaf and branch.
Intricate engravings on the leaf bowls and the realistic form of the stem/branch indicate a high level of craftsmanship and artistry by the silversmith. Upon close inspection, the asymmetric and naturally flowing design is further apparent and is a delightful touch.
Not only are these spoons practical for a wide variety of uses from tea to desserts, but are a modest yet discerning addition to any collection or interior decor for a sophisticated and nature-inspired look.
The pair is gilded with a yellowish/lemon hue that has been worn and patinated in a very attractive colour/tone.
A full set of English hallmarks are present on the reverse side of the bowl.
