One of a kind. When it’s gone, it’s gone.
A distinguished pair of antique Victorian silver plate scallop dishes, meticulously crafted by the esteemed Sheffield makers Roberts & Belk, late 19th century . Each piece features the characteristic shell form with graceful proportions, supported by three substantial ball feet that provide stable, elegant presentation. The integral tab handle ensures practical serving ease. These versatile vessels were traditionally employed for both butter service and confectionery presentation, reflecting their dual purpose in refined Victorian dining. The underside bears authentic Sheffield hallmarks including the date letter for 1895 and the maker's mark, alongside the distinctive Aladdin's Lamp mark—all indicators of genuine period manufacture and quality craftsmanship. The silver plate finish retains the lustrous patina characteristic of late 19th-century production. Ideal for discerning collectors and those seeking authentic antique serving pieces, this matched pair represents a significant example of Victorian tableware design and continues to serve both decorative and functional purposes in contemporary settings.
