IMPRESSIVE SHIEBLER STERLING OBLONG SERVING DISH W/ FLORAL REPOUSSE RIM

Description

None of what we sell is necessary to life, but some may be useful to supporting the human spirit.
With deep regret
we will no longer fulfill sales to
our Russian and B
elarusian friends
as long as their governments continue to perpetrate the war crime of attacking the civilians and the peacefully successful democracy of Ukraine.  These actions insult all humanity and you must employ your humanity to end the insult.  We in the rest of the world will do our best to support those Ukrainians now afflicted by this senseless violence.
Because of this war we will not block, but we will not fulfill any sale made to Belarus or the Russian Federation.
Impressive sterling silver oblong serving dish with floral and swirled leaf repoussé rim, and engraved "SYR" below the floral rim on both narrow sides of the dish.  The piece weighs 17.1 troy ounces, and measures 14 inches across by 7 1/2 inches deep by approximately 2 1/2 inches high.  Marked on the base with George Shiebler's trademark and "Sterling 3286" and the retailer "Theo B. Starr".  There are long very fine shallow surface scratches on the interior and base of the dish, and several super tiny black spots on the bottom of the dish (see photo), and a some tarnish on the back of the dish, otherwise in good antique condition.
