Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

This Edwardian bon bon dish takes the form of a round vessel comprising a deep cobalt blue glass liner housed securely inside an openwork sterling silver frame. The intricate silver mount incorporates architectural columns joined by embossed floral garlands and swags, complemented by small pad feet at the base. The striking combination of the vivid blue glass and the polished silver produces a strong visual contrast, while the open framework allows the rich colour of the liner to show through from all angles. Measuring 3.2 cm high, 10 cm wide, and 10 cm deep, the dish possesses a compact and sturdy silhouette well suited to smaller items. Positioned on a sideboard top, this piece fits naturally within an English Country House interior scheme, adding a touch of classic Edwardian design to a dining room or living space. It serves equally well as a decorative accent or as a functional small container for sweets, nuts, or trinkets. The sturdy construction ensures it sits steadily on any flat surface, and the timeless combination of glass and silver makes it a versatile addition to traditional or transitional table settings. Daily care involves simple dusting and gentle cleaning of the metal and glass components to preserve their polished appearance.

FAQs

Edwardian silver and glass tableware, produced between 1901 and 1910, often incorporates Neoclassical revival elements such as swags, garlands, and pierced fretwork surrounding vibrant glass liners.

These items typically consist of a solid sterling silver or silver-plated pierced outer frame combined with a removable hand-blown or moulded coloured glass liner, most commonly in cobalt blue or ruby red.

Authenticity is verified by checking British silver hallmarks stamped on the frame, including the lion passant for sterling quality, a city mark, and a date letter matching the 1901 to 1910 period, alongside a precisely fitted glass liner.

Position the dish on a dining sideboard, vanity table, or coffee table tray to function as a catchall for small items or as a vibrant accent amidst neutral decor.

Remove the glass liner before cleaning to wash it separately in warm soapy water, while cleaning the silver frame with a soft cloth and specialised silver polish to prevent tarnish without damaging delicate pierced details.
