Impressive c1760s Old Sheffield Fused Plate Round Claw Foot Tray Large Size 1850-1870 The portraits have been mountedPresented is a fine old English Sheffield silverplate tray. This piece dates to around the 1760s, and is true old fused plate, with thick sterling silver around the edges. The tray is a handsome classical form, with a Chippendale or pie crust style rim and gadrooned edge, standing on four ball and claw form feet. This piece is in great overall condition. There is some wear to the center portion, where it looks like a crest or monogram was removed.
