Puckerings has dated this piece to the 1880s.
The dish stands on four decorative legs terminating with a very regal ball and claw foot.
The dome itself is simply beautiful with exquisite repousse or embossed decoration.
When the knob at the front is pushed back the dome revolves to reveal the two original shallow trays. These are perfect on a buffet to serve either hot (with hot water beneath) or cold (with crushed ice below) dishes; a very impressive addition to any occasion.
The underside is marked for the top-notch Atkin Brothers and also marked EPNS for Electro-Plated Nickel Silver.
A beautiful dish in excellent condition, measuring 11" (spanning 13 1/2" in total) x 9" x 8 1/2" tall.
