Antique Dish

• antique from likely the 1880-1910

A refined French silver-plated dish by Boulenger, bearing the maker’s metal blanc and Argent Boulenger marks. Finished with an elegant hand-engraved monogram, it reflects the tradition of personalized table pieces in turn-of-the-century France.

Originally intended for tabletop service, it lends itself beautifully today as a small catchall or resting place for a glass, with a softly worn surface that speaks to its history.
