^Lot 127 Antique Pewter Plate with Engraved Rim Detail

Antique pewter plate or shallow dish with broad plain rim, simple incised border lines, and a faint engraved ornamental or ownership panel to the face of the rim. The piece has a restrained utilitarian form and mellow grey surface consistent with historic table pewter, and is best catalogued as a late 18th- to 19th-century English or Continental example. An appealing decorative object for shelf, dresser, or wall display, with the understated character associated with early domestic metalwares. Condition consistent with age and use, including general scratching, oxidation, worn engraved detail, and minor surface unevenness; no major repairs observed.
