This Fabulous ANTIQUE serving PLATTER and COVER is made by F.B. Rogers Silver Company, 1883 and is hallmark engraved on the platter back.
THIS IS SILVER ON COPPER! T is also the number 7721 Silver plate is the result of a process that bonds pure silver to the desired base. Silver plating is done by transferring a uniform layer of pure silverfrom a silver ingot or bar to the surface of the item being plated.Sheffield plating was the first silver plating technique used. It consisted of attaching a thin skin of sterling to one or both sides of a copper brick, rolling it into flat sheets, and then working it in a similar manner as silver. This technique was replaced in 1842, when electroplating (or sterling silver deposited by electrolysis on a base metal) was introduced. What caught my eye with this set was the beautifully engraved 16" x 14 1/2" X 3" high, ornately scrolled , double handled four footed tray.... this is not your ordinary flat tray.....the presence of the tray commands an essence all it's own . Than t is the wonderful high rise cover... 6" tall X 13 1/4" X 12 1/4"perfect for serving a TURKEY, FISH, or HAM during the HOLIDAYS... for Vegans ... TEMPE SURPRISE. this set is in VERY GOOD condition..... very mild wear WHICH IS TO BE EXPECTED OF A PIECE THAT IS OVER 100 YEARS OLD. Also, some mild rubbing from polishing.... still a brilliant beautiful luster when polished.... F.B. Rogers was founded in Shelburne Falls MA in 1883 and moved to Taunton MA in 1886. It eventually became a division of The National Silver Co and is still in business as such. The packing, handling and shipping rate might actually be more once the items are packed and the destination is decided. At that time I will send a bill for the balance before shipping.Please ask any and all questions before bidding, as all sales are final. Failure to ask any and all questions about the item for auction before bidding is the full responsibility of the buyer. In the rare instance of an acceptable return, t will be a 25% fee.
