Antique British Silver Plate over Copper 15.75" x 27" Handled Butler's Tray

This silver plate over copper antique measures 15.75" by 27" overall and the length excluding the handles is 22". It was purchased at the Bermondsey market in London over 25 years ago and is from the late 19th century when the wealthy, landed families of England still had butlers. It is unmarked for the manufacturer or the plate quality. It is made of an alloy of silverplate over copper as the base metal. It has some silver plate worn off on the top side and a black spot on the bottom. The handles are still very secure. It is a very heavy piece, weighing in at 7 lbs. It is of a simple design and is not ornate. It makes an elegant addition to your holiday table or to your special event table.
