Elegant Antique English Silver Plated Revolving Breakfast Dish by Mappin and Webb

1900 - 1920
For Sale by Puckerings
Description

One of the most special Breakfast dishes I have come across in some time, we only ever purchase them when they are particularly special, this one by top London silversmiths, Mappin & Webb.

The dish stands on four highly decorative fluted legs. The dome is simple with an elegant fluted design. The revolving lid is kept closed with the help of a key on a chain.

When the knob at the front is pushed back the dome revolves to reveal the two original shallow trays. These are perfect on a buffet to serve either hot (with hot water beneath) or cold (with crushed ice below) dishes; a very impressive addition to any occasion.

A quality late Victorian / early Edwardian example in superb condition dating to c.1900. 11" handle to handle x 7 1/4" (plus knob) x 8" tall to top of dome.

This Victorian English silver plated revolving breakfast dish dates from around 1900 and belongs to the English Country House style. The piece presents a brilliant silver colour with a highly reflective finish. The item consists of a spherical body supported by four cast claw feet and features twin loop side handles, a fluted dome lid with a retractable cover design, and a key attached by a chain. The body incorporates decorative mouldings along the upper rim and stands on ornate fluted legs. The smooth silver surface shows reflections of the surrounding environment. Measuring 20.3 cm high, 27.9 cm wide, and 18.4 cm deep, the serveware sits appropriately on a sideboard top during breakfast service or buffet meals in a dining room. The revolving lid mechanism operates via a front knob to reveal internal compartments suitable for serving hot or cold dishes to guests at home.

FAQs

Popularised in the late Victorian era, a revolving breakfast dish is a silver-plated hot food server equipped with a domed lid that rolls back underneath the body to conserve space at the dining table.

These dishes were typically constructed from electroplated nickel silver (EPNS) or sterling silver, often featuring bone or synthetic insulating knobs, removable interior liner trays, and cast metal feet.

Authentic pieces feature makers marks, electroplate symbols such as EPNS or EPBM, numeric registration numbers, and signs of period craftsmanship including hand-chased details and heavy cast feet.

Place the dish as a central accent on a dark wood sideboard or buffet table, pairing it with linen runners or glass decanters to complement the metallic finish.

Apply specialised silver polish using soft cotton cloths, avoid abrasive scrubbing pads, and ensure interior hot water reservoirs are dried thoroughly after use to prevent oxidisation.
