Pair of Silver Filigree Bonbonnieres, possibly Portugese, early C20th
A pair of bowls formed from minute and delicate silver filigree work, the shallow incurving sides with a deeply scalloped rim above an openwork foot with plain sides, the decoration in the form of leaves, perhaps those of a cabbage plant, with elaborate silver thread detail. The workmanship here is obvious but the provenance of these pieces less so. Silver filigree pieces were made in both Russia and China but there is little resemblance to those here. A much closer parallel lies in Portuguese work and there is one very similar bowl from that source known to have belonged to one Charles William de la Poer Beresford, an Admiral and Member of Parliament, who died in 1919. If there is a connection here, then this pair of bowls most likely have a similar origin and date to the early years of the twentieth century.Diam 11.5cm
