About the Item

A complete George III sterling silver supper dish with domed cover and original lampstand, hallmarked London 1818, maker's mark W·B, probably William Burwash or possibly William Bateman I, the spirit burner with London hallmarks for 1819. The circular dish with gadrooned border, the domed cover surmounted by an ornate cast foliate-scroll handle, raised on a conforming stand with twin loop handles and four acanthus-capped supports terminating in lion's paw feet, the cross-stretcher fitted with its detachable sterling silver spirit lamp — a component very often lost from surviving examples. The dish and stand fully hallmarked with maker's mark W·B, lion passant, leopard's head crowned, date letter c for 1818 and George III duty mark; the cover part-marked with lion passant and date letter, as customary for the period; the spirit burner separately hallmarked London 1819, maker's mark T.B. A handsome and substantial example of high Regency dining silver, entirely typical of the grand sideboard service of an English country house breakfast — designed to keep devilled kidneys, kedgeree or bacon warm above the gentle flame of the spirit lamp.
