Description
C-18270
Grouping of midcentury silverplate serving wares including a handled and lidded vegetable dish with glass insert, an oval footed meat platter with vein-style carving well, and a pair of petite salt and pepper shakers. The dish and platter each feature beaded and scroll-edged borders with bright mirror finishes, reflecting the refined yet practical design of postwar American silver service. Silverplate sets like these were common fixtures in dining and hotel service during the mid-20th century, bridging tradition and modernity with durable electroplated finishes and neoclassical ornamentation.
Displays moderate tarnish and surface wear consistent with age and use; glass liner intact, minor plate wear to edges.
Platter: 16.25 L x 11.5 W Lidded Dish: 12" W x 9" D x 7.25" H
