Description

\'THE VACANT CARTOUCHE\' IS PLEASED TO BRING TO YOU :

THE HUGE \'\'GEORGIAN OSP\'\' SALE.

A MASSIVE COLLECTIVE SALE OF ONLY GENUINE \'FUSED PLATE\', \'CLOSE PLATE\' & PROPER \'OLD SHEFFIELD PLATE\' FROM THE GEORGIAN PERIOD.

TODAYS sale :

A LARGE & GRAND GEORGIAN OLD SHEFFIELD PLATE OVAL MEAT COVER / DOME.

DESCRIPTION :

A GOOD LARGE TABLE PIECE FROM THE LATE 18TH - EARLY 19TH CENTURY. MADE AROUND 1790 - 1810 OR THERE ABOUTS.

THIS MEAT COVER OR DOME IS OF A GREAT SIZE. PERFECT FOR JOINTS OF \'HAM\', \'BEEF\' OR \'CHICKEN\' ETC.

IT IS BY NO MEANS A \'PERFECT\' ANTIQUE PIECE, IT IS AROUND 220 - 230 YEARS OF AGE & DOES SHOW IT IN PLACES. BUT IS STILL A GRAND ITEM ALL THE SAME.

THE DOME HAS A SUPERB OVAL BODY, WITH THICK \'REEDED\' BANDS AROUND THE BOTTOM RIM & A FILLED SILVER BORDER AROUND THE WAIST.

TO ONE SIDE IS A LARGE \'LET IN\' RECTANGULAR PIECE, WHICH IS SMOOTH & PERFECTLY \'SMOOTH\' TO THE BODY.
THIS IS SILVER ON THE INSIDE, BUT TO THE OUTSIDE IS ALL COPPER.

I PERHAPS WONDER IF THIS WAS A \'LET IN\' SHIELD, WHERE A COAT OF ARMS WAS ONCE ENGRAVED, BUT THE SILVER LAYER ON THE OUTSIDE HAS COMPLETLY \'RUBBED OFF\' OVER ITS MANY YEARS ?

MOUNTED UPON THE TOP WITH A LARGE \'FIXED\' CARRYING HANDLE. STRUCK AS AN \'ARCHED & REEDED\' BRANCH, WITH A FILLED SILVER BORDER TO THE EDGE OF THE MOUNT.

THE INSIDE IS VERY CLEAN & BRIGHT. HERE YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE OUTLINE OF THE \'LET IN\' PIECE.

THERE IS WEAR IN PLACES, AND THERE ARE DINKS AROUND THE DOME.
YOU CAN SEE COPPER BLEEDING THOUGH IN PLACES, AND LEAD SHOWING AT THE BORDER. TO ONE SIDE, THE BORDER HAS RECEIVED SOME DAMAGE, WITH A SECTION OF THIS \'MISSING\'.
THERE IS SOME \'GREENING\' OR CORROSION IN PLACES TOO.

BUT WITH ALL THAT SAID, ITS STILL A SUPERB ITEM FOR THE GEORGIAN COLLECTOR.

SIZE & WEIGHT :

MEAT DOME MEASURES A GOOD 38.5 CM WIDE & 30 CM DEEP.
IT STANDS AT 23 CM IN HEIGHT TO THE TOP OF HANDLE.

WEIGHT = A GOOD 1\'800 GRAMS / 1.8 KG\'S.
