A Rare Early 19th Century Silver Plated Lidded Tureen, France, Circa 1830

About the Item

Both the base & lid are engraved with a finely detailed heraldic coat of arms surmounted by a Marquess coronet, the interior retaining it's original and rarely found removable liner. Raised overall upon a stepped circular spreading foot, the underside bearing impressed makers marks (unknown) & town mark for Marseilles, as well as the word ‘PLAQUE’ which is the French term for 19th century silver plated items, also referred to as 'fused plate' which is a process quite similar to that of English 'Old Sheffield Plate', whereby a layer of copper is sandwiched between two outer layers of silver, then heated & rolled (annealed) into sheets to be formed into an assortment of table items i.e. tureens, trays, candelabras, candlesticks, wine coasters, etc.
