English Silver Plate Boulton Centrepiece Epergne Glass Tray Dish

















You are viewing an absolutely stunning creation hand crafted from crystal cut glass, silver plate, ormolu, bronze and mirrored glass. It\'s hard to know what to call this? A centrepiece? Epergene? Sometimes you come across something so unique and beautiful it\'s hard to put into words and you only hope the pictures will go some way in conveying the magnitude of this work of art. This is hallmarked and stamped in various places - please see close up photo. It is a Sheffield silver plate piece in the manner of Matthew Boulton. 

The main central column has a main dish a top and three smaller dishes coming of the column. This stands on the silver plate and mirror base. To the side of the main piece are the two smaller dishes, also made from the finest crystal cut glass. 

Adorned at various points around the bases of the three dishes and at other points are the gorgeous chubby cherubs in gold plate. Some of the cherubs are reclining in a more smoothly pose whilst others are waving their hands in a salutation.
