Pair of Paul Storr Georgian Silver Entree Dishes 1792

18th century

Sold by The Silver Cabinet

Description

A wonderful pair of solid sterling silver entree dishes made by the great Paul Storr towards the end of the 18th Century.

They have elegant plain styling with a broad gadroon border and high domed covers. The detachable handles feature hooves, perhaps to mirror the family crest which is a rearing stag.

They are hallmarked for London 1792. The marks inside the covers are crisp whilst those below the handles on the bases are a little rubbed but still discernible. One of the bases has 'Storr and Mortimer' on the base. The other base is split into two separate dishes.
