Silver Dishes Shell Shape Hallmarks Birmingham 1971. However these are not the usual shell dishes and unlike any that I have come across before. They are absolutely beautiful and have been beautifully engraved with a floral pattern to the top of each of the segments and having a lovely fluted edge. They have short embossed shell shaped handles, and they stand on quite long volute feet. These dishes are made from a good guage of silver and are of a very good weight.
Assay Office: BIRMINGHAM
Date: 1971
Makers Marks: JBC & S Co (JB Chatterley & Sons Ltd)
Dimensions: 5.25 inches long at their longest, 4.5 inches wide at their widest point and they stand 1.75 inches tall. They weigh a total of 231g
Condition: They are bot in lovely condition
Remarks: This is a superb pair of solid silver shell dishes, and I have to say that the photograph does not do them justice. They make beautiful display items when not in use, and would look impressive in any home. If you could bear to part with them once you see them, they would make a lovely present for someone
Antique and vintage silver by its very nature has been previously used. Silver is a comparatively soft metal and a combination of many years use invariably leaves its mark. I do endeavour to describe all items accurately but do not expect any antique to be in “as new condition”.
