This English sterling silver porringer dates from the 1920 period in an Art Deco style with a Georgian design influence. The silver vessel presents a polished plain body, a flared rim, and twin loop side handles, with clear interior reflections and crisp maker hallmarks visible inside. Measuring 14.6 cm across including the handles and 7.6 cm in height, the solid silver piece weighs 166 grams. The silver bowl sits appropriately upon a sideboard top within an English country house setting. Such a traditional vessel functions practically as a decorative table display piece or a container for small domestic items in a living room or dining room.

FAQs

Historically, a porringer was a small shallow bowl, often fitted with one or two handles, used primarily in Europe and North America for serving warm porridge, soup, or broth, and frequently presented as a christening keepsake.

British sterling silver consists of 92.5 percent pure silver alloyed with copper for structural durability, and is traditionally stamped with official hallmark symbols indicating the assay office, silver standard, maker, and year of manufacture.

Authentic British silver pieces bear a full set of official hallmarks, including the lion passant mark for sterling quality, an assay office symbol, a specific date letter, and a registered makers mark.

A silver porringer can serve as a polished decorative vessel on a sideboard, a trinket dish on a vanity table, or a central accent piece displayed within a curated glass cabinet.

Polish sterling silver periodically using a soft microfibre cloth and specialised non-abrasive silver cream, avoiding harsh chemical dips or abrasive pads that can wear down the surface.
