Description from the seller
Vintage Royal Sheffield Collection Silver-Plated Chocolate Holder / Lidded Box – Sheffield, England (mid-20th century)
Description
This elegant vintage lidded chocolate holder (or decorative serving box) from the Royal Sheffield Collection features a striking design with a lid and an ornately embossed body with rich floral and scrollwork motifs in a deep toned finish on silver plate.
The lid is detachable, crowned by a beautiful carved wooden finial with a central metal knob. The piece rests on a subtle base and shows fine craftsmanship typical of quality English silver plate.
Key Features & Measurements
• Hallmarked “Royal Sheffield Collection” with crown and additional maker/quality marks (including F/B symbols, consistent with Sheffield plating traditions).
• Weight: 407 grams.
• Dimensions: 11.5 cm x 8.5 cm x 9.5 cm.
• Excellent vintage condition with beautiful patina.
Art Style & Period
Victorian/Edwardian Revival style with ornate rococo-inspired floral repoussé and decorative embossing.
Produced in Sheffield, England – the historic heart of British silver and silver-plate manufacturing.
Likely dates to the 1950s–1970s, aligning with the popularity of the Royal Sheffield Collection line.
Condition
Very good overall – the plating remains vibrant, engravings are crisp, and the lid fits well. Minor signs of age consistent with a well-cared-for vintage piece.
Perfect as a luxurious chocolate or confectionery box, jewelry holder, or elegant decorative accent. A timeless piece of English silver-plate heritage!
