Elkington of Birmingham was one of the most respected and innovative silverplate foundries of the 19th century, renowned for exceptional quality and pioneering electroplating techniques that set the standard for English tableware. The surfaces retain their original aged patina with areas of natural tarnish intentionally left in place; while silverplate can always be polished bright, an authentic time-earned patina cannot be recreated once removed. The commanding scale and crisp relief make these striking statement pieces for the table or sideboard, rich with both history and presence.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"594\" data-end=\"597\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"598\" data-end=\"879\"\u003ePRODUCT INFORMATION\u003cbr data-start=\"617\" data-end=\"620\"\u003eEra: Late 19th Century\u003cbr data-start=\"642\" data-end=\"645\"\u003eCondition: Light wear consistent with age\u003cbr data-start=\"686\" data-end=\"689\"\u003eCountry of Origin: United Kingdom\u003cbr data-start=\"722\" data-end=\"725\"\u003eMaterials: Silverplate\u003cbr data-start=\"747\" data-end=\"750\"\u003eDimensions: 12.5\" L x 7.5\" W x 3\" H\u003cbr data-start=\"785\" data-end=\"788\"\u003eColor\/Finish: Silver with aged patina\u003cbr data-start=\"825\" data-end=\"828\"\u003eCare: Use good quality, non-abrasive silver polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"881\" data-end=\"884\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"885\" data-end=\"1194\"\u003eSHIPPING + RETURNS\u003cbr data-start=\"903\" data-end=\"906\"\u003eFREE LOCAL PICKUP @ Our Shop in Southern California – By Appointment\u003cbr data-start=\"974\" data-end=\"977\"\u003eFree Domestic Shipping on Most Orders — All Orders Ship Within 3 Business Days\u003cbr data-start=\"1055\" data-end=\"1058\"\u003e(Ground USPS or UPS)\u003cbr data-start=\"1078\" data-end=\"1081\"\u003eExpedited Shipping is Available for an Additional Charge @ Checkout\u003cbr data-start=\"1148\" data-end=\"1151\"\u003eThis item is final sale and non-returnable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1196\" data-end=\"1199\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1200\" data-end=\"1643\"\u003eINTERNATIONAL BUYERS\u003cbr data-start=\"1220\" data-end=\"1223\"\u003eCustoms fees are placed on physical goods that are imported into a country from another country or territory.
