This Georgian Old Sheffield Plate wine cooler dates to the nineteenth century, presented in silver and copper with a grand Regency design vibe. The urn-shaped vessel features a removable tight-fitting lid opening to reveal an internal removable ice bucket, paired with side handles depicting the face of Bacchus, gadrooned rims, and lobed fluting to the lower body showing copper bleed. An engraved shield monogram bearing the initials RWG adorns the front, complemented by reed edging and a circular foot. Practical dimensions measure 19 cm high and 21 cm wide. Suitable for placement on a dining room sideboard top, this piece functions as a wine cooler during formal dinners or gatherings. The sturdy metal construction and classic form provide a functional serving accessory that integrates into traditional and period-inspired interiors. Collectors of Georgian dining silver will find utility in its combination of historical craftsmanship and traditional aesthetic appeal.

Old Sheffield Plate refers to a process invented in the eighteenth century where a sheet of copper was fused between two thin layers of silver before being rolled into sheets and worked into tableware.

Georgian wine coolers were constructed using silver-plated copper or solid silver, frequently featuring removable collar inserts and internal liners to hold ice and preserve wine temperatures at the dining table.

Authentic Old Sheffield Plate often exhibits copper bleeding where the silver surface has worn away through polishing, alongside hand-engraved monograms and turned or drawn wire edges concealing copper seams.

An antique wine cooler functions as a functional beverage chiller or decorative centrepiece on a dining sideboard, bar cart, or console table, and can also be styled holding floral arrangements.

Maintain Old Sheffield Plate by dusting with a soft cloth and applying a non-abrasive silver polish sparingly to prevent stripping the remaining silver layer from the copper core.
