This silver-plated Art Nouveau style bon bon dish, dating from around 1930, presents a striking profile designed for holding sweets. The piece comprises a hemispherical bowl supported by an elevated central stem, anchored to a stepped circular base, and flanked by two prominent side loop handles that sweep downward to the column. The entire object possesses a polished silver finish that reflects light across its metallic surfaces, with visible wrapped blue spherical sweets resting inside the bowl. The dish stands 22.2 cm high, 12 cm wide, and 12 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this decorative tableware item sits well upon a sideboard top as a functional centrepiece or display accessory during gatherings, bringing a touch of vintage glamour to dining rooms, living spaces, or entryways.

FAQs

Art Nouveau metalwork is characterized by flowing organic lines, sinuous curves, whip-lash motifs, and forms inspired by natural flora and fauna, emerging in the late nineteenth century.

Silver-plated tableware typically consists of a base metal such as brass, copper, or nickel silver electroplated with a thin layer of pure silver to achieve a metallic lustre.

Authentic silver-plated items feature maker marks, electroplate hallmarks such as EPNS or EPBM, evidence of natural oxidisation, and visible base metal where plating has worn over time.

A silver-plated bonbon dish can be positioned on a dining table, console, or sideboard to hold small items, function as a centrepiece, or add metallic contrast to contemporary surfaces.

Silver-plated metalwork should be cleaned using a soft cloth and specialized non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and excessive rubbing that could remove the thin silver layer.
