A rare and beautiful visiting card tray by Gorham, circa. 1884. The plate top decorated with a wild flower pattern. Seemingly draped across the plate is a folded napkin. Excecated in the trompe l'oeil manner and presumably designed by Louis E. Jenks. Marked to base with Gorham hallmarks as well as Sterling, 395 and Q. A fabulous and very rare piece of Gorham silver.
Condition
In generally good antique condition with expected wear. Minor dings and surface scratches throughout. The rim shows dents and is misshapen in places, particularly above the feet. Hallmarks are clear and legible.
