This pair of sterling silver bonbon dishes originates from the 1930 Deco era, carrying clear Sheffield hallmarks from 1930 and 1933 alongside the maker's mark for James Dixon & Sons. Each circular bowl has a deep rim, a plain smooth surface, and a silver colour finish. The design incorporates twin double-line scroll handles that curve inward and three hairy lion paw feet supporting the base. Individual items measure 6 cm high, 14.5 cm wide, and 10 cm deep. These decorative dishes suit a sideboard top in a dining room or living space to hold sweets or small items during gatherings.

FAQs

Art Deco silver design from the 1930s is characterised by a transition between traditional ornamental motifs and modern, streamlined geometric forms. Pieces often feature clean lines combined with stylized classical elements such as scroll handles or paw feet.

Authentic British silver bonbon dishes are crafted from sterling silver, which consists of 92.5 percent pure silver alloyed with copper for structural durability. They are constructed using traditional silversmithing techniques, including raised smithing, soldering, and hand-stamping.

Authentic Sheffield silver pieces feature official British hallmarks stamped into the metal surface. These include the crown symbol representing the Sheffield Assay Office, a date letter specifying the year of production, the lion passant for sterling silver, and a makers mark.

Small silver dishes can be placed on a sideboard, coffee table, or console table to hold wrapped confections, trinkets, or stationery items. Their reflective metallic surface adds light and physical texture when layered alongside modern glassware or ceramics.

Silver items should be polished periodically with a gentle, non-abrasive silver cream and a soft microfibre cloth to remove tarnish and oxidisation. Avoid harsh chemical detergents and store pieces in dry, low-humidity environments to minimise tarnishing.
