Description
This is a vintage mid century 1950s International Sterling Silver pedestal compote table server in the Wild Rose pattern. Although it sits flat on the table without any wobble it does have a dent on the base which is causing a very slight tilt. See photos. The Wild Rose pattern is very pretty and true to life with the central rose on each section containing only 5 wide curved petals amid long leafy flourishes on each side. Size is 6.25″ tall north to south by 6 5/8″ wide across the dish east to west by 3 1/4″ across the base. This is a weighted compote 9.9 ounces BUT the sterling silver content is approximately 3.3 ounces. Later versions of this compote by International Silver will have even less sterling silver in them. It came from an estate years ago and once polished up it will be complimentary to any dining table for any occasion. Never monogrammed or inscribed.
