About This Piece

A Georgian sterling silver butter dish of round form with a glass liner and removable lid decorated with a stylish finial. Simple and classic in form, the lid bears a Coat of Arms and has been inscribed with the year 1817. A fine piece for any Georgian silver collection.

The butter dish is marked for Rebecca Emes & Edward Barnard. Rebecca Emes is celebrated as one of England’s most accomplished female silversmiths — the widow of John Emes, she formed a partnership with Edward Barnard shortly after his death. Together they created exceptional silver pieces of enduring quality.

The butter dish will be double boxed and a signature at delivery will be required.
