Prometheus Antiques has dated this piece to the 1860s.
The lilies are all individually constructed with foliage rising to three flowers with gilded stamens. The whole is the most stunning naturalistic centrepiece with all the silver plate in good condition, sadly there has been the loss of one leaf although this is hardly noticeable because of the profusion of leaves. The centrepiece is unmarked which is unusual for a piece of this size and quality though it would certainly have been by one of the premier makers of the period. C.1860.
Overall sizes in inches:
