Fruit bowl - EPNS

This vintage EPNS silver-plated piece is a square or near-square serving tray or low-footed dish, Sheffield, England. Design style: Classic mid-20th-century British electroplate — elegant and functional for tea/coffee service, cakes, or display. It features typical ornate elements like scalloped or pierced gallery rims (openwork borders for a lacy look), chased/etched floral, scroll, or foliage motifs, possibly with a central plain or lightly engraved field for monograms. The 14 cm height suggests low raised feet or a shallow gallery rim (common in "gallery trays" to contain items), giving it a substantial yet graceful presence. Dimensions: 24 x 24 x 14 cm The 627 g weight indicates solid, good-quality plating on nickel silver base, often with pseudo-hallmark styling for a sterling-like appearance. A timeless, accessible Art Deco/revival-era piece blending practicality with decorative charm! Marks: EPNSe (vertical/stylized), shield/star emblem, SJ and MADE IN ENGLAND Origin: England, most likely Sheffield (historic silver-plating center) Age: Early to mid-20th century, probably 1920s–1950s A charming, vintage piece from the era when silver plate brought elegance to everyday homes and tables. Perfect for display, vintage styling, or upcycling!
