Click to view additional photos

This is a beautiful pair of silver-plated wine coasters by the firm of Elkington, Birmingham plate-workers who are well-known for their exceptional quality and unique designs. Each circular coaster has tall, openwork sides that are formed as a sculptural border of grapes, vines and leaves. This decoration is exceptionally crispy and executed in heavy gauge metal. These wine coasters are exceptionally bold and have a lovely textured and modeled surface that produces a cool and dramatic silver color. Each has a wooden base with a central, circular silver-plated boss. These wine coasters are both in excellent condition, and measure approx. 5 1/2” in diameter. Each is marked with Elkington’s maker’s mark, a Gothic E, and date letters L and M in lozenges; one is also marked 1690. This gorgeous pair of wine coaster would make a striking addition to your table, and would make an excellent gift for a wine enthusiast.   Price: $3,250.00   Stock #BC358
