Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

An entree dish is a covered serving vessel designed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to keep hot food warm at the dining table, often featuring removable handles that allow the lid to double as a second serving dish.

Victorian silver-plated entree dishes were typically manufactured using electroplating, where a thin layer of pure silver was electrochemically deposited onto a nickel silver base, decorated with chased borders and cast handles.

Authentic pieces carry stamped makers marks on the underside, such as the Walker and Hall flag logo, alongside electroplate quality symbols and Victorian registration marks.

These pieces can be displayed on a dining room sideboard, used as decorative storage containers on a console table, or presented as table centrepieces during formal dining occasions.

Silver plate should be washed gently in warm soapy water and polished periodically with a soft cloth using a gentle non-abrasive silver polish to prevent removing the delicate silver layer.
