Description

Large Round Pierced Tray – A stunning openwork pierced-edge round tray with a rope-twist inner border, finished in bright silver-plate. This showstopper centerpiece is the largest piece in the lot and would anchor any formal tablescape with effortless elegance. Light surface tarnish but structurally sound and ready to shine after a quick polish.

Round Two-Handled Gallery Tray – A smaller round tray with ornate pierced gallery sides and two decorative scroll handles, marked Wm. Rogers (as seen in image 4). The classic rococo-style handles add serious drama, and the pierced border matches the larger tray beautifully. Some tarnish present, consistent with age.

Edgewater Beach Hotel Oval Platter – The crown jewel of this lot. Stamped on the bottom: EDGEWATER BEACH HOTEL / INTERNATIONAL SILVER CO. / SILVER SOLDERED / 05002 / 10 IN. This piece of genuine hotel silver carries the soul of one of Chicago's most legendary grand hotels. Heavy, well-made, and dripping with history – a serious collector piece.

Oval Serving Platter with Rope-Twist Border – A generously sized oval platter with a classic gadroon or rope-twist edge. Marked International Silver Co. on the base with an original inspection sticker reading INSPECTED BY 16 / MADE IN USA. Clean and bright with minimal wear, this one is nearly table-ready.

Oval Serving Platter with Beaded Border – A mid-sized oval platter featuring a refined beaded edge border. Silver-plate finish shows some light tarnish and age patina but remains attractive. A versatile everyday serving piece.

Small Oval Tray with Embossed Floral Border – A petite oval tray with an ornate embossed floral and scroll border. Ideal for a bread basket liner or condiment serving tray. Light tarnish and surface scratching consistent with use.

Silver-Plate Butter Dish with Dome Lid – A classic rectangular covered butter dish with a scalloped edge and acorn-style finial on the dome lid. Shows tarnishing and oxidation on the dome but retains its charming traditional form. Pairs with the glass butter insert shown in a separate piece.

Silver-Plate Butter Dish Base with Glass Insert – A rectangular silver-plate butter dish tray base with matching scalloped border, accompanied by a ribbed pressed-glass rectangular butter insert. The two-piece set is functional and charming, with the glass insert in excellent condition.

Small Rococo-Style Dish / Nut Bowl – A petite silver-plate dish with an ornate rococo-style border featuring scroll and shell motifs. Bright and polished with minimal tarnish. Perfect for nuts, mints, or condiments at a formal table.

Small Round Sauce Ladle or Gravy Boat Lid – A small domed round piece, likely a ladle rest or small lid, with visible tarnish and age. Modest but useful as a filler piece in any silver-plate collection.
