This nineteenth-century Grand Regency Old Sheffield plated coffee pot stands 26 cm high, 24 cm wide, and 11 cm deep, weighing approximately 917 g. The piece displays a silver-plated finish over a copper base with visible copper bleed at the centre of the body and around the handle. The shape comprises a baluster body, a circular pedestal foot, a goose-neck spout, and a domed lid with a floral or foliate finial. A scroll handle attaches to the body and features bone spacers functioning as heat insulators. Visible seams run down the back of the vessel and along the spout, while the plain metallic surface reflects light across its curved contours. In a home today, this pot works well displayed on a dining room sideboard top or as part of a traditional table setting.

FAQs

Old Sheffield Plate is a metalwork process invented in the mid-18th century where a sheet of sterling silver is fused to a copper ingot using heat and pressure before being rolled out to craft tableware and hollowware.

These vessels consist of a core layer of copper sandwiched between thin layers of sterling silver, often featuring cast silver mounts and heat-insulating bone or hardwood rings integrated into the metal handle.

Authentic pieces frequently show copper bleed where the silver has worn down on high points, exhibit seam lines on curved hollowware, and lack standard electroplating hallmarks, sometimes bearing maker marks stamped directly into the metal.

Place the vessel on a sideboard, drinks trolley, or dining table tray alongside contemporary glass or ceramic items to contrast warm metallic reflections against modern textures.

Clean gently with a soft cloth and specialised non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh scrubbing or dishwasher cleaning that can strip the thin silver layer and expose the copper core beneath.
