Hello All,
I found this beautiful piece at a surgeon's estate sale who used to travel the world in his spare time. My wife and I have researched it for several hours on this website and others but cannot find anything similar to it. I think it's a fish server, lasagna server or maybe even for desserts.
It is 13" long, 8.8 ounces and has a butterfly with leaf design on the front. The back is marked in Old English with "K", "B", "&", "K" and "S". The back also has a large "S" in a leafy design. It has what might be light hammer marks from when it was crafted but I could be wrong, it might just be from being polished. I am assuming it is silverplated since it doesn't say 925 or have a lion symbol.
We would love to know it's origins and how old it is. We've had fun pouring over thousands of pictures looking for a similar one but now it's time for help.
Any help provided by this community would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
