Amazing Antique English Revolving Dome Server!

This fabulous, revolving top dome server on legs was made in England by the renown Thomas Bradbury and Sons.  Thomas Bradbury had been an apprentice at one of the original Sheffield England silversmiths from the 1700's!  Eventually his son and his grandsons would be named owner of the company.  This gorgeous gleaming silver plated piece was made in England circa late 1800's.   This excellent specimen features a revolving lid which tips all the way back.   There are lovely engraved flowers with a central medallion bordered by garlands on the lid .  Open it to find two very rarely seen removable trays as well as the interior base.  One tray is uniquely formed into the shape of a tree witha well for drainage, the other is pierced.  Hot water can be contained in the bottom to keep food warm on your serving buffet.  The dramatic legs are tall and fluted, a hole in the lid is to keep your serving spoon inside while the lid is closed.  Excellent antique condition, a beautiful heirloom to use as a display centerpiece as well as a special buffet or meal.   15" w x 9" d x 9" Tall
