Webbs Princess Plate London
Sheffield, Art Deco, circa 1880
This stunning antique silver-plated egg coddler stand by Mapple Princess Plate, London
Sheffield exemplifies the finest craftsmanship of the late 19th century. Designed in a refined Art Deco style circa 1880, this remarkable piece combines both functionality and aesthetic elegance.
The set features four silver-plated egg holders with four matching spoons, all gracefully presented on a finely detailed pierced basket stand resting on four balled feet. The central ring handle provides balance and ease of serving, while the sculpted edge and polished finish add sophistication to the overall design.
Each egg cup measures approximately 2 1/3" in height by 1 7/8" in diameter, and the basket itself measures 6 1/2" in height by 6 3/4" in width by 7 3/4" in depth. All components — including the basket, spoons, and egg holders — are clearly stamped with the maker’s marks, attesting to their authenticity and quality.
This luxurious silver-plated set remains in excellent antique condition, with minor age-related patina that enhances its vintage charm. It makes a perfect addition to elegant breakfast tables, fine dining collections, or luxury interiors, and serves equally well as a decorative display piece.
We offer professional polishing and engraving removal upon request (additional charge; shipping delay applies).
A matching toast holder, two pots with pearl inlays, an extra tray, cream jug, salt shaker, and lidded bacon warmer server can also be included as part of a coordinated breakfast silver set, available at extra cost.

Sheffield Plate
Antique and Vintage Sheffield and Silverplate
Sheffield silverplate is a durable combination of thin silver sheets and comparatively thicker sheets of copper that was used to create a variety of household objects for years. On 1stDibs, find a collection of antique and vintage Sheffield silverplate and other silverplate for all of your formal dining and entertaining needs.
A cutler named Thomas Boulsover, who worked for a cutlers company in Sheffield, England, accidentally invented what we now call Sheffield silverplate during the 1700s. While working on a decorative knife for a customer — the metalworkers guild had been tasked with repairing its handle — Boulsover mistakenly overheated the silver and noticed that the knife’s layers of silver and copper melded together, creating an impressive bond. This new material felt like silver but was substantially cheaper. It was then used to produce a variety of serveware, candlesticks, buttons, tea sets and more. For families that couldn’t afford the sterling-silver tureens that were used to serve soup in the upper-class English homes at the time, this was good news. They could impress guests with housewares that looked like sterling silver but actually weren't.
Today, just as pewter collectibles and sterling silver are popular with collectors at neighborhood flea markets, antique Sheffield silverplate housewares are sought after for their appearance and rich history. Sheffield silverplate can command high prices on the secondhand market.
Securing yourself a Sheffield silverplate piece is like acquiring a little bit of history. In order to identify authentic Sheffield silverplate, you need to look for one significant attribute of the material. A metalworker had to ensure that all of the exposed edges of a particular piece had to be covered with a rim of silver. If not, the middle layer, which comprised copper, would show through. This would reveal that the piece was not sterling silver.
Don’t just trot out your matching crystal, silver and porcelain once or twice a year. Make a habit of mixing high and low when setting the table. To pair with your everyday contemporary tableware, find antique and vintage Sheffield silverplate on 1stDibs as well as silverplate by goldsmith and tableware companies such as Christofle, Elkington Co. and more.
