Unusual Antique English Figural Dish by William Padley C.1890

19th century
For Sale by Puckerings
Description

A really unusual late Victorian silver plated dish formed by two hands cupped together. I am not sure if this dish was for a particular use, such as for visiting cards.

The handle is of naturalistic form with grapevine decoration. The underside of each hand is struck with the retailer's mark ( Pearce of Leeds and Huddersfield). The silversmith's makers mark is also present for the well renowned Sheffield maker of William Padley.

Excellent condition, measuring 8" x 5 1/2" x 4" tall to top of handle.

FAQs

During the late Victorian period, silver and electroplated novelties featuring naturalistic and figural motifs, such as cupped hands or botanical elements, became fashionable decorative accessories for receiving calling cards or displaying small items.

These items were predominantly constructed from solid sterling silver or silver-plated base metals like electroplated nickel silver, casting fine details into molds prior to hand-finishing and polishing.

Authentic late Victorian silver pieces feature stamped makers marks, city hallmarks, or electroplate registration numbers, along with crisp detail in cast motifs such as hands or botanical handles.

This decorative silver dish functions well on an entryway sideboard as a catchall tray, on a dressing table to store jewellery, or styled atop coffee table books to add metallic texture.

Clean gently using a soft microfibre cloth and specialised non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh chemical dip solutions that can strip original oxidisation or thin electroplated layers.
