AC Silver has dated this George IV Silver Platter to the 1800s.
The convex surface of the silver tray is embellished with an impressive later chased floral spray design; the convex nature of the centre creates a well to the outer circumference.
The domed border is ornamented with further floral and foliate decoration, accented with a paralleling scalloped rim.
This exceptional antique silver platter was crafted by James Barber & Co in York, England; large pieces of silver bearing the York town mark are rare to the market.
An antique sterling silver decorative platter/silver centrepiece is a distinguished and versatile gift, ideal for weddings, anniversaries, retirements or housewarmings. Suitable as a centrepiece or display tray, it embodies timeless elegance and refined taste.
