A good pair of late Victorian shaped oval pierced oval
silver dishes. The borders are in the form of scrolls,
shells and flowers. The bodies are pierced with geometric
patterns, and each dish stands on a pierced pedestal base.
These would be perfect for small sweets,
candies, raisins or nuts.
Made in 1897 by
