Portuguese .833 silver salver from Porto, dating ca. 1887–1937, with a 27 cm diameter and 2.8 cm height, weighing 314 g, three feet (one adapted for suspension) and finely chased and repoussé Rocaille decoration.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Salver in Portuguese .833 silver, set against the Porto open-wing eagle, an exemplar of Portuguese silversmithing.

It features an elaborate chased and repoussé work, Rocaille-inspired, with volutes, shells, and well-defined vegetal motifs.

It rests on three feet, one of which has been adapted to allow the piece to be suspended, giving it a dual decorative function.

Based on the decorative style and the contrast, it is attributed to the end of the 19th century / the early 20th century, a period spanning roughly 1887 to 1937, corresponding to the brand’s tenure in Porto.
