This Edwardian silver-plated strawberry set by Roberts and Belk dates to c.1900 and exemplifies English country house serveware. The composition comprises a large scalloped shell tray with all-over repousse decoration, accompanied by two attached fluted bowls and an arched carry handle decorated with a leaf-shaped base and a looped finial. The silver-plated pieces display engraved lattice detailing across the fluted ribs of the main shell dish and the bowls, creating varied reflective surfaces. Maker marks from the Sheffield silversmith are stamped on the pieces. Measuring 12 cm high, 26 cm wide and 24 cm deep, this multi-compartment dish sits on a sideboard top or dining table. It serves cookies, cakes, milk and sugar during tea service, or functions as a decorative display object for fresh fruit.

FAQs

Popularised during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, a strawberry set is a specialised item of tableware featuring a main dish for serving fresh fruit alongside integrated bowls designed to hold cream and sugar.

These serving pieces are primarily crafted from electroplated nickel silver or sterling silver, frequently featuring chased patterns, repousse shell motifs, and cast carrying handles.

Authentic items typically display stamped makers marks, such as the trade marks for manufacturers like Roberts & Belk, alongside initials such as EPNS indicating electroplated nickel silver.

Position the set on a dining table or sideboard as a functional serving piece for afternoon tea, or place it on a dressing table to organize jewellery and small accessories.

Clean gently using a soft cloth with a dedicated silver polish, avoiding harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that can strip the silver layer, and ensure the piece is dried completely after washing.
