Victorian Silver Shell Dish, Atkin Brothers, 1900 Victorian  Silver Shell Dish %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
This is a good quality late Victorian Sterling Silver Shell Dish on three ball feet. Formed as a scallop shell, this would almost certainly have been intended as a butter dish when originally made. Today it could also be used for sauces on a dining table, nuts or snacks, as a ring or trinket dish on a dressing table or to hold small items of stationery on a desk. The choice is yours!

The dish is made in Sheffield by renowned silversmiths Atkin Brothers and dates to 1900. With a history dating back to around 1750, Atkin Brothers were a hugely successful and highly regarded firm of silversmiths and electroplaters until they were finally bought out after 200 years in 1958.

Condition is extremely good, with no dings or dents and just the superficial surface wear that you would expect after over 120 years of use. Please make sure to view all the photographs.

The shell dish is 12.1cm from rim to handle, 9.5cm across and stands 2.5cm high. It weighs a very respectable 55.8g of solid Sterling Silver.

The hallmarks, on the upper side of the flat handle, are nice and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the crown assay mark for Sheffield, the date letter h for 1900 and the HA makers' mark for Harry Atkin of Atkin Brothers.
