This is a magnificent, large-size sterling silver tray by premier American silversmiths Gorham. This large oval tray stands on four bracket feet decorated with a shell and scroll-work. It has a plain field with a large beaded border trimmed with a guilloche band and with sculptural leafy-scroll side handles. The exceptional modeling of the feet and handles shows off the exceptional craftsmanship of this tray. This tray is in excellent condition and is of the finest quality and heaviest gauge. It measures approx. 26 3/4” long over the handles and approx. 16” wide, and weighs approx. 108 troy ounces. It is marked on the reverse with the Gorham maker’s mark, the word Sterling, and the retailer’s mark of Crosby, Hunnewell & Morse. This beautiful tray has been executed in a classic design that is both refined and elegant. This antique silver tray is an exceptional find, the perfect marriage of function and beauty! A complementary tea and coffee service is also available, see #BC506.   Price: $8,500.00   Stock #BC487
