About the Item

Elegant and sculptural set of two 1980s silver-plated serving dishes modeled as swimming ducks, each finely worked with detailed plumage and expressive naturalistic forms. The hinged domed lids, engraved with feather motifs and topped with stylized tail handles, open to reveal generously sized interior bowls, ideal for serving vegetables, sauces, or condiments. Manufactured by Silea France. The bodies display meticulous texturing throughout, contrasting beautifully with the mirror-polished domes, creating a refined interplay of matte and reflective surfaces. Both decorative and functional, these whimsical yet sophisticated table pieces exemplify the quality craftsmanship and playful elegance characteristic of mid-century Continental silverplate. A striking addition to an elegant dining table or a distinguished decorative accent for a sideboard or vitrine.
