The style of the pierced work and the beaded edge suggest a design from the late Victorian or early Edwardian era, popular between the late 1800s and early 1900s. These types of smaller serving pieces were commonly used for condiments, pickles, or jellies, and were a sign of a wellappointed home. The hammered finish on the spoon handle is also a characteristic design element of this period, often used to create a handcrafted, rusticyetrefined aesthetic. This set represents a piece of social history, offering a glimpse into the customs and decorative tastes of a bygone era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gifted UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52605169959259,"sku":null,"price":27.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0936\/4986\/3003\/files\/57_bcf8bd99-de0b-4f4c-80a4-5de19dc36948.png?v=1773695156","url":"https:\/\/gifteduk.com\/products\/vintage-silverplated-serving-tray-and-serving-spoon-set-rectengle-plate","provider":"Gifted UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
