An ornamental pair of wine coasters in the Regency style, dating from circa 1850. Each piece comprises a circular silver-plated body with a shell and scroll floral mount, raised on a turned dark wood base featuring a polished central silver boss and concentric turning rings. The reflective silver surface contrasts with the deep brown tones of the timber beneath, displaying crisp gadrooned detailing along the scalloped borders. Measuring 5 cm high by 19 cm wide and 19 cm deep, these table accessories sit neatly on a sideboard top or dining table. They serve to protect surfaces when holding wine bottles during family meals, celebratory dinner parties, or quiet evenings at home, bringing a touch of traditional craftsmanship to contemporary interior settings.

FAQs

Old Sheffield Plate refers to a manufacturing process discovered in the 18th century where a layer of sterling silver was fused to copper under heat and pressure before being rolled into sheets for silversmithing.

Traditional wine coasters typically feature fused silver plate over copper rims, coupled with turned hardwood basesfrequently mahoganyand a central silver boss designed to protect tabletop surfaces.

Authentic pieces often exhibit silver bleeding where copper shows through worn surfaces, hand-turned wooden inserts, central silver bosses, and visible seaming where silver foil was wrapped around outer borders.

Position a pair on a sideboard, dining table, or drinks trolley alongside glass decanters to incorporate traditional metallic accents into dining areas.

Clean the metal sections using a silver polishing cloth applied carefully to avoid contact with the wooden insert, which should be kept dry and maintained with light application of natural wax.
