Caldwell Antique Silver Ice Bowl Bucket Roman Greek Classical Gilded age

Lovely silver bowl by Edward F. Of New York and Philadelphia, second and slightly smaller of two we have.

A classical Roman'Arretine' style Silver plated bowl, possibly based on the famous Arretine Cup, or another Roman terracotta vessel, from the late 19th century. Caldwell, along with Gorham, Tiffany, and Black, Starr & Frost were providers of the highest quality items to Gilded Age America. Silver plated cast copper or repousse with what looks like a vermeil background; or possibly trraces of old anti-tarnish lacquer, copper repousse with inner liner, presumably an ice bowl for bar use etc.

Words MERN and BAR, and depicts classical figures of men, women, horses, a stunning intricate tree. Rosette and three ball feet underneath.

Measurements: 16.8 cm diameter, 7.8 cm tall or 6.3/8", 3.1/8" high. Not stamped with marked but exactly the same as other very distinctive unmarked Caldwell bowls. Some of the photos show a slightly distorted shape, this is lens distortion from my camera, the bowls are perfectly round. Sometimes, there are issues that arise, but please rest assured, we will assist in any way that we can.
