Miracoli Romeo & C - c.1934, Milano - Prato - .800 prata - Bonbonnière / Candy Dish

This ornate Italian silver dish is a fine example of a bonbonnière or candy/nut dish, crafted in the Rococo revival style popular in early 20th-century European silverware. Produced by the renowned Milanese silversmith firm Miracoli Romeo & C around 1934, it exemplifies the high craftsmanship associated with the company, which was founded in 1912 by Romeo Miracoli and has remained a family-run operation through multiple generations, specializing in handcrafted silver pieces using traditional techniques. The dish is fashioned from .800 fine silver (as indicated by the punched fineness mark), weighing approximately 88 grams. It measures roughly 14 cm x 11.5 cm in diameter, with an oval, shell-like form that flares outward in a scalloped rim. The body features intricate repoussé and chased decoration, depicting swirling floral and foliate motifs—including leaves, flowers, and scrollwork—that radiate from the center in a fluted, fan-like pattern, evoking the exuberant asymmetry and naturalism of Rococo design. This chasing creates a textured, three-dimensional effect, with high-relief elements contrasting against polished, recessed areas for dramatic light play. The dish stands on three cabriole-style feet, each terminating in a paw or acanthus leaf motif, adding elevation and stability while enhancing its decorative profile. The underside reveals the hallmarks: .800 fineness punch Shield-shaped cartouche on the base contains a coiled serpent emblem, likely a nod to the Biscione (the heraldic viper symbol of Milan and the Visconti family), serving as a regional or decorative identifier rather than a formal hallmark. Miracoli Romeo & Co, based in Milan, was known for producing luxury tableware and decorative objects during the interwar years, often blending classical influences with Art Deco elements. This piece reflects that ethos, with its elaborate hand-worked details suggesting it was intended for elegant table settings or as a display item in affluent homes. The firm's legacy continues today, with descendants maintaining the workshop as one of Milan's oldest silver ateliers, recognized as a historical enterprise by the city.
