Description

A handsome silver trinket dish in modernist design, made by the great A.E Jones. This quality example is stylishly and tactfully crafted in a long slender boat shape design, perfectly balanced to the centre point. The underside is planished in the arts and crafts taste and the silver is of good gauge. The dish features full hallmarks, along with the retailers mark and the designers signature of Geoffrey G. Bellamy.

Bellamy designed for A.E Jones in Birmingham during the late 1950s and early 1960s, winning a Design Centre Award in 1961. He was greatly influenced by Scandinavian design and, although evident, this dish is also typical of the emerging contemporary post-war British design that is synonymous with Bellamy’s work.

A wonderful collectors piece, being both usable and decorative. Dimensions below.

Modernist silverwork from the early to mid-20th century typically focuses on clean geometric lines, minimalism, and functionalism, moving away from heavy Victorian ornamentation.

These items were predominantly handcrafted from sterling silver using traditional smithing techniques such as hand-hammering, raising, and planishing by skilled silversmiths.

Authentic pieces are identified by examining official hallmarks stamped into the metal, which indicate the makers mark, standard of purity, assay office, and date letter.

A silver dish can be placed on a dressing table, desk, or coffee table to hold small items such as keys, jewellery, or cufflinks, adding a reflective metallic accent to the space.

Antique silver should be cleaned infrequently using a specialist non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth to preserve the patina and avoid wearing down the metal surface or hallmarks.
