**Huge 53cm Sterling Silver Pierced Centrepiece Bowl
Joseph Rodgers & Sons, Sheffield 1908 — 1.93kg**
A magnificent and exceptionally large Edwardian sterling silver centrepiece bowl by Joseph Rodgers & Sons, fully hallmarked for Sheffield, 1908. Weighing an impressive 1,930 grams, this is a true statement piece and one of the largest examples of its type.
The bowl is beautifully crafted in an elongated boat / oval form, featuring an elaborate pierced (reticulated) gallery of scrolling foliate and floral motifs, typical of late Art Nouveau transitioning into Edwardian design. The twin side handles are elegantly shaped, adding both balance and presence, while the whole piece is raised on a refined pedestal base, giving height and grandeur.
The craftsmanship is of the highest quality, with crisp piercing and an exceptional sense of proportion—hallmarks of Joseph Rodgers’ finest silverwork.
