✨ Antique English Sterling Silver Bonbon Dishes – 1913 Birmingham – Pierced Pedestal Bowls – Elegant Edwardian Pair ✨
A beautifully refined pair of antique English sterling silver bonbon dishes, hallmarked in Birmingham and dating to 1913, at the height of the Edwardian era. Gracefully elevated on pedestal bases and adorned with intricate pierced detailing, these pieces embody the quiet luxury and craftsmanship of early 20th-century tableware.
Their delicate openwork rims catch the light with a soft shimmer, while the elevated form gives them presence without heaviness — perfect for styling a sophisticated table, vanity, or curated interior.
A rare opportunity to acquire a matched sterling pair, preserved together for over a century.
