An extraordinary example of early 20th-century American silver artistry, this antique silverplate centerpiece bowl was crafted by E.G. Webster & Sons, later part of the prestigious International Silver Company. The hallmark dates this elegant design to the late 1920s–1940s, during the transitional era when Webster’s hand-finished quality met the opulence of International Silver’s Hollywood age.
The bowl features a beautifully fluted scalloped interior, a pierced and repoussé Rococo border, and a high-luster silver finish that catches light with stunning depth. Every curve and flourish reflects the enduring craftsmanship of Webster’s Brooklyn workshops — a perfect statement for collectors, entertainers, and lovers of heirloom silver.
Condition: Excellent condition. The surface retains a bright mirror polish with only the lightest signs of age on the front side — no dents or deep wear. Truly a showcase piece.
