Antique Victorian Solid Silver Gilt Bowl with Ornate Floral Chasing - Henry Wilkinson & Co 1860

We are delighted to offer this magnificent solid sterling silver gilt bowl made in Sheffield, 1860 with the maker's mark of Henry Wilkinson & Co.

Striking and impressive even upon a quick glance, this bowl has been fully silver gilt (gold on top of solid silver) and presents a wonderfully ornate and detailed design.

The exterior features two vacant cartouches with a beautiful scrolled and foliate wreath. On either side, a panel of fabulous high relief hand-chasing is present with floral and further scrolled acanthus leaf motifs.

The workmanship on the chasing is particularly delightful with a very crisp, accurate and intricate design. The background being stippled creates a further textured and contrasting effect.

The bowl rests on a pedestal and is of a very versatile size which allows it to be used in a plethora of ways; whether be it as a sugar bowl, slop bowl or perhaps to put some small snacks or even cherries. We imagine that with a touch of creativity, this bowl would grace any situation even in the modern day, offering a stunning piece of interiorware in combination with practicality.

The bowl is fully marked with English hallmarks on top of one of the cartouches.
