Antique Silver on Copper Oval Covered Repousse Serving Dish from E. G. Webster
Webster & Son produced ornate silver-plated, repousse pieces over copper like this covered oval serving dish. This piece features elaborate Dutch revival designs including windmills, dancing figures, floral/grapevine, and cherub scenes. The company was active from 1886 -1928 and were located in Brooklyn, NY. Like most of their antique pieces, this one shows warm copper tones where the silver plating has worn off. This is known as “bleeding” which reveals the copper underneath–a very desirable patina favored by collectors. Involves hammering the metal from the reverse side to create a raised, relief design. The pieces are silver-plated over a copper base. On the base (somewhat worn due to age) but still visible (see photos). This stunning antique piece comes from the estate of a retired diplomat.
