This superb cased pair of pierced silver butter dishes bear the marks of the reputed silversmiths Adie & Lovekin. Each dish of oval form, the sides pierced with exquisite lattice designs and raised on four fleur-de-lys capped feet. The dishes flanked by elegant pierced lug handles and fitted with their original frosted glass liners.
The set is completed by the matching silver butter forks, all beautifully presented in the original box.
The forks themselves are a simple and exquisite design. The frosted glass liners with star cut base, always a sign of quality. This is rare on the market; complete cased sets are few and far between and this is a very elegant example.
