Silver & Metalware : Decorative Ware : Silver plate and cranberry glass epergne
Silver plate and cranberry glass epergne
 
Presented here is a magnificent Sheffield silver plate and cranberry glass epergne. It is a wonderful piece straight out of the Raj. It is marked Sheffield silver plate, with the maker's marks of gws in a shield. This epergne is decorated with two elephant heads mounted on each side of an engraved vase, each holding a cranberry trumpet in its trunk. There is a central trumpet mounted in the top of the vase, all of the above is held up by feet in the form of owls with their wings spread. This wonderful piece dates from the 19th century. There is some slight damage as decorative points are missing on the two smaller trumpet mounts, but this in no way detracts from the overall impact of the piece.
