Silver Epergne – A Birmingham Hallmarked Centrepiece
This elegant epergne features a central trumpet-shaped vase supported by a tripod base. Three removeable, smaller flutes extend from the central vase, creating a striking display piece. Hallmarked in Birmingham in 1916, this silver epergne showcases a classic design, perfect for displaying flowers or fruit. The weighted base ensures stability, and the overall construction demonstrates quality craftsmanship.
Condition and Collectability
This silver epergne shows signs consistent with age and use, adding to its character. The silver has a lovely patina, and while some light cleaning may be desired by a new owner, it is presented in good condition. This piece would appeal to collectors of antique silver, those seeking a unique centrepiece for their dining table, or anyone appreciating the elegance of early 20th-century silverware. The gross weight of 197g adds to its substantial feel and perceived value.
