Antique Victorian or Edwardian Silver Plate Serving Gallery

This antique silver plate casserole dish holder, estimated to date from the Late Victorian to Edwardian era (circa 1890s–1920s), transcends its original culinary function to become a sophisticated styling object. Featuring a reticulated gallery with a geometric lattice pattern, the piece offers an airy, textured border raised on four substantial, ornately cast claw feet with detailed floral headers. Its sturdy scrolled handles and regal stance make it an ideal architectural foundation for curating vignettes—perfect for cradling a stack of vintage books, a cluster of pillar candles, or a trailing potted plant. The silver plate currently exhibits a deep, authentic patina with visible tarnish that accentuates the relief details, providing a moody, historic character well-suited for dark academia or eclectic interiors.

VINTAGE & ANTIQUE

Once you remove an item's traces of age and patina it's not something you can reverse, so we leave those activities up to the buyer. We do not disassemble found art from their frames unless it is necessary to differentiate a print from an original piece of art. Vintage prints purchased from this shop could originate from any print media (e.g., magazines, books, photographs, art prints, etc.). We try our best to describe items accurately and disclose any and all flaws and imperfections. Please refer to pictures as a visual description. We want to make sure you are happy with your purchase so, please do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have prior to checkout.
