Description from the seller

Serving Tray with Lid – Lobster – Silver Plated – Made in Italy

Important and impressive silver-plated serving tray, complemented by a domed lid crowned with a finely crafted three-dimensional lobster sculpture, an iconic element of luxury associated with the grand table and elite gastronomic tradition.

The item is in excellent, almost like-new condition. The surface is extremely bright and shiny, with only very rare micro-scratches (2–3 minimal marks), visible only in strong backlight and compatible with a very slight wear over time. It has never been used for service.

Inside there is a shaped wooden insert designed to support food (lobster, fish, gourmet courses), a refined and functional solution that protects the silver plated and preserves its quality over time.

On the bottom the original markings are clearly visible:
• GS
• Silver Plated
• Made in Italy

The GS initials are linked to high-end Italian silverware and silver-plated items, attributed to a Milanese workshop specialized in luxury presentation and tableware.

Dimensions
• Length: 50 cm
• Width: 28 cm
• Height: 11 cm (with lid)



Production period (estimated)

Based on style, the quality of the plating, the lid design and the type of markings, the tray is plausibly datable to between the late 1960s and the 1980s.
