"Plateau," created by Elkington & Co. in the 19th century, is a large silver tray featuring a scene of a hunting party. The tray's surface is elaborately embossed with a detailed depiction of riders pursuing prey, showcasing the craftsmanship of the silversmiths at Elkington & Co. The rococo-style border, with its intricate floral and scrollwork motifs, adds to the overall grandeur of the piece. This piece is a prime example of 19th-century silverwork, demonstrating the artistry and skill of the era.
