This Georgian Old Sheffield Plate wine cooler dates to c1800 and exhibits a smooth silver casing with copper bleed and slight surface wear. The oval form stands on a plain circular base, featuring an oval stepped rim and a triple bottle insert set beneath a central spherical finial handle. The heavy metal construction weighs approximately 1.3kg and displays a workman's mark to the base. Measuring 10 cm high and 27.5 cm wide, the piece offers a practical table-top server for social gatherings. Homeowners can place the wine cooler upon a dining table or sideboard top during dinner parties to hold multiple bottles of wine. The classic metallic finish complements traditional interior schemes while serving its functional purpose.

FAQs

Developed in the mid-eighteenth century, Old Sheffield Plate involved fusing a layer of sterling silver onto a copper ingot before rolling it into sheets, creating accessible silver tableware such as multi-bottle wine coolers for formal dining.

These vessels typically featured an outer silver-plated copper casing fitted with an internal removable insert containing separate collars or liners to hold ice and keep multiple wine bottles chilled simultaneously.

Authentic pieces often display thin seams, rolled silver edges designed to conceal the central copper layer, and slight signs of copper showing through high-wear areas, known as bleeding.

Position the cooler as a dining table centrepiece or place it on a sideboard filled with botanical arrangements, rolled linen napkins, or beverage bottles during entertainment.

Clean gently using a soft cloth and a specialised non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh chemicals or aggressive rubbing that could wear through the fused silver layer to the copper beneath.
