Brand: Collectors Gene
Price: 465.00 USD
Availability: OutOfStock

An elegant antique silver-plated Corinthian-style mini tazza by the esteemed English silversmith Barker Brothers.

The dish features a fluted pedestal supported by classical Corinthian columns rising from a stepped circular base. Above sits a beautifully proportioned bowl with a decorative band of engraved detailing and a fluted rim that catches the light from every angle.

Produced during the late Victorian or Edwardian era, the piece reflects the neoclassical influence that dominated British silver design of the period.

Ideal for serving bon bons, sweets, or cocktail garnishes, the tazza also functions beautifully as a decorative centerpiece for a refined tabletop or bar setting.

Collectors Notes

Corinthian-style tazzas draw inspiration from classical Greek architecture, particularly the ornate Corinthian column capitals that appear throughout European decorative arts.

Small examples like this were traditionally used for:

bon bons
sugared almonds
fruit or nuts

Today they are equally beautiful as:

a pedestal for jewelry
a catchall on a dressing table
a sculptural accent on a bar cart

A timeless antique that bridges classical design and modern entertaining.
