About the Item

We are offering this sterling silver platter made by the Worden-Munnis Company of Boston, Massachusetts. It is a reproduction of a John Coburn piece from 1725 (signed on the back). John Coburn (May 25, 1724 - January 20, 1803) was a noted silversmith active from about 1745 to 1790 in Boston, Massachusetts. Coburn was born in York, Maine, and apprenticed circa 1737 to John Edwards in Boston. He is best known for his tea-serving items, and also for silver objects for churches in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Maine. His work is collected in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and the Yale University Art Gallery. It is sleek and does not have any etchings or decoration; just an understated and sophisticated look. This piece is a great size and shape for hors d’oeuvres and/or desserts.
