Collector's Notes
Decorative silverplate serving pieces were made to bring a more formal look to everyday and special occasion tables during the early 20th century.
This form should appeal to collectors of American silverplate, ornate serving utensils, and traditional tableware.
The long 11 inch size and deeply formed bowl give this piece more presence than a small condiment or cream ladle.
It is the sort of old serving piece that works equally well in a flatware collection or mixed vintage table setting.
