A pair of vintage sterling silver dishes designed in the shape of stylized leaves. Each dish is divided into three lobes or sections, radiating from a central point and sculpted with deep, scalloped fluting that creates a rich, dimensional texture.
The edges are softly undulating, giving a naturalistic, organic feel reminiscent of flower petals or leaves, while the “stem” section is slightly pointed and flared, adding a realistic touch. The high-polish finish enhances their visual appeal, creating reflective surfaces that catch the light beautifully. The craftsmanship is mid-20th-century American silver by Frank Smith Silver possibly for serving nuts, candies, or hors d’oeuvres. These dishes are identical in shape and style, and sold as a matching set.
