Antique Webster Co Sterling Silver Petite Bowls w Gilded, Hammered Finish (WeP)

This elegant set of four antique sterling silver bowls, each measuring 1.7 inches in diameter and .69 inches in height, exudes understated luxury. Crafted with precision, these petite bowls feature a faceted, hammered design that catches the light beautifully, enhancing their textured appearance. The interior is richly gilded, offering a warm contrast to the cool silver exterior, a characteristic that speaks both to the piece's aesthetic appeal and its practical purpose, as the gold wash would protect the silver from corrosion when used to serve salt or other condiments.

Perfectly sized for use as salt cellars, these bowls would have graced a finely set table, adding both functionality and elegance to a formal dining experience. The octagonal detailing on the base and sides reflects a modernist design influence, balancing simplicity with sophistication. Additionally, the set's condition reveals the subtle patina and character that can only come from years of careful use and preservation.

These sterling silver bowls are stamped with clear hallmarks on their bases, ensuring authenticity and confirming their craftsmanship. Whether collected as an exquisite piece of silverware or repurposed for modern entertaining, this set offers a timeless touch of refinement to any dining or display setting.
