It was listed by Mansion House Antiques & Fine Art. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Mansion House Antiques & Fine Art has dated this piece to the 1900s.
There are three scrolled pad feet raising the item to 4.25 Inches in height.
The Ornate Stand cleans very easily with a silver polish and soft cloth,looking remarkably better when done every 6 mths,and has just been done.
The underneath of the ornate stand has been crafted in solid mahogany which has a removable square panel to allow access to a red cloth trim under the glass.
This adds considerable weight generally.
It is my belief that this item is a"Silver Tree Stand"
providing an ornate base unit.
It would also make an ideal Wedding Cake Stand,
ideal for a specialist cake maker to use for presention or hiring out at weddings.
Would also look great with a "Large Silver Punch Bowl or Fruit Bowl on the Stand.
I have looked carefully for a makers stamp or other marks,but cannot find any signs of one.
