This French Art Deco serving dish stand comes from around 1920 and takes the form of a circular silver-plated trivet decorated with pierced botanical foliage motifs and a central floral medallion. The bright silver finish gleams across the raised outer rim, the extending mechanism rails, and the intricate openwork framework. A horizontal seam cuts across the center, revealing the two halves of the extending mechanism that allow the tray to expand for larger serving dishes and platters. Maker marks and design numbers stamp the metal surface, while small feet and hinges support the structure. Measuring 24 cm wide when closed, this piece sits on a dining table center or sideboard during meals to protect surfaces from hot serving plates. Users can slide the extendable frame outward to accommodate wider platters while keeping the decorative geometric foliage patterns visible underneath serving dishes.

FAQs

An extending silver plate dish stand, or trivet, is a adjustable table accessory crafted to support hot serving dishes or platters of varying lengths while protecting dining surfaces from heat.

Pieces from this era typically feature a base metal core, such as nickel silver or brass, electroplated with fine silver, often finished with detailed pierced fretwork and mechanical rivets.

Authentic pieces generally feature stamped makers marks, maker scales or symbols within a square or oval, and precise weight and execution in the expansion mechanism.

Place the trivet flat on a dining table or sideboard as a functional decorative element, or set it beneath decanters, vases, or table centerpieces to highlight its intricate cut-out patterns.

Clean gently using a non-abrasive silver polish and a soft microfibre cloth, ensuring polish residue is removed from the cut-outs and joints, then dry thoroughly before storage.
