Sciarrotta Shreve Crump & Low Sterling Silver Maple Leaf Mid Century Candy Dish
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:45075957 |
Today we are delighted to offer for sale an antique/vintage Shreve Crump & Low serving or candy dish by Alfredo Sciarrotta! A bit of info on Scarriotta, courtesy of Wikipedia:
Sciarrotta's work is characterized by a sleek and simple style, and many of his smaller pieces feature his signature leaf-shape designs. During the 1950s and 1960s, Sciarrotta’s handmade silver serving dishes, bowls, candelabra, vases, trays, cigarette boxes, etc. were sold at the most exclusive American retailers from coast to coast, including Georg Jensen, Cartier, and Black Starr and Gorham in New York City; Bailey Banks & Biddle in Philadelphia; Gump’s in San Francisco; Shreve, Crump & Low in Boston; and many more. His designs became known as “The Wedding Gift of Philadelphia and Newport” and he was often referred to as the "Modern Cellini."
This elegant and artistic leaf-shaped dish makes a fine standalone piece or may be used to serve candy, nuts, or small hors d'oeuvres. Finely crafted to resemble an autumn leaf, this dish's edges curl up slightly, reminiscent of the season's crisp foliage. Six slim veins travel down the sides of the bowl and come together where a thick rounded stem connects to the leaf's base. Three ball feet on the underside of the dish allow it to stand prominently from its place on the table. This piece is marked on the bottom with luxury retailer's Shreve, Crump & Low Co emblem, as well as "Handmade by Sciarrotta", "Sterling" and "8". As any stylish hostess or host knows, gleaming silver never goes out of style! This piece will create an elegant focal point on any tablescape.
Bowl presents well and is very good vintage condition, with minor wear/scuffing, tarnishing, and patina commensurate with age and light use. There are a few minute tarnish spots (cleanable of course wth a little elbow grease). No dents or monograms. Add elegance and style to any fine silver collection with this classic piece. Fresh to the market!
