Antique Boxed Indian Colonial Silver Salver (1842)
Located in Jesmond, Newcastle Upon Tyne
A magnificent, fine and impressive antique Indian Colonial silver salver by George Gordon Co - boxed; part of our antique salver collection. This magnificent antique Indian Colonial silver salver has a circular shaped form onto three bracket style feet. The surface of this antique silver salver is embellished with a broad, flat engraved floral, scrolling leaf and opposing scroll decorated border. The decoration to the surface incorporates a central contemporary engraved presentation inscription 'Presented to Capt H.A. Thompson 50th Reg M.N.P. By Colonel Green and his Brother Officers, in acknowledgement of his unremitted EXERTOONS as Mess Secretary for a period of nearly six years during the whole of which times his Conciliatory and Obliging demeanours have so essentially contributed to the HARMONY and well being of the Regimental Mess, December 1842'. The rim of this magnificent sterling silver salver is embellished with a fine and impressive fruiting vine decorated border, accented with large leaf designs and grape clusters. The salver is supported by three cast scroll decorated bracket style feet. This magnificent salver is fitted to the original hinged oak wood presentation box, with a satin and velvet lined interior. The exterior surface of the box is fitted with brass mounts, in addition to a vacant cartouche to the cover; the mounts are a fine feature and indicate the high quality of the piece. This boxed Indian silver salver embodies fine craftsmanship and rich cultural heritage, making it an exceptional gift for weddings, anniversaries, retirements or corporate presentations. At home, it lends refinement and a sense of tradition when displayed on a sideboard, dining table or within a cabinet. Condition This antique silver salver is a superior gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition. The flat engraved and engraved decoration is all very crisp. The original presentation box shows some indications of wear, in keeping with age. The Indian maker's mark struck to the underside of the salver is very clear. Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this example of silver serving trays. Dimensions Diameter 34cm/13.39' Diameter of surface 23cm/9.06' Height 3.5cm/1.38' Weight 40.8 troy ounces/1270.3g Maker: George Gordon Co Date: 1842 Origin: Madras...

Antique, New and Vintage Velvet Furniture

Velvet in all of its iterations — including crushed, flocked, devoré and brocade — is luxurious and supremely swaddle-worthy, always beckoning us to just reach out and touch its fuzzy nap. It’s true — vintage velvet sofas and couches, loveseats, bedroom furniture and other velvet pieces have always been in style.

First appearing in China during the Qin dynasty (around 221 BC), velvet was subsequently produced in Iraq and Egypt. The tactile textile reached large-scale distribution in Italy from the 12th through the 18th centuries, and the European Renaissance catapulted velvet into fancy manses and boudoirs. Finally, from the 1920s through the 1990s, the material became absorbed into mainstream culture.

As far as the resurgence of velvet goes, was the fashion industry the first to revive the fabric’s popularity? Or had interior designers been championing the resplendent fabric all along? Velvet definitely made a strong return to the spotlight as the fabric du jour back in the fall of 2016 on coveted catwalks, like those of Vetements, Stella McCartney and Saint Laurent.

One could argue that once velvet hit those runways, the interior-design world took notice. But lest we trick ourselves into thinking velvet will soon be “so over,” this plushest of fabrics is a true classic in every sense. And there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight for its popularity. (Even Gucci recently unveiled a Surrealist line of home decor heavily featuring, of all things, embroidered velvet cat cushions.)

Luminous. Resilient. Luxurious. Velvet’s richness elevates even the most ordinary objects, making it the perfect fabric to pair with furniture, decorative objects and, of course, ready-to-wear clothing. Find a collection of antique, new and vintage velvet furniture on 1stDibs.
