This exquisite sterling silver overlay trivet dates to the turn of the 20th century and remains in mint condition. The piece features an elaborate and finely detailed overlay design, likely applied over glass, showcasing the ornate aesthetic popular during the Art Nouveau and Edwardian eras. Scrolling vines, flourishes, and floral motifs intertwine with delicate precision, creating a richly decorative surface that highlights the artistry of silver overlay work. The craftsmanship is exceptionally crisp, with the silver retaining its original luster and the underlying surface unmarred. Both functional and decorative, this trivet is a beautiful representation of turn-of-the-century elegance and refined taste.
