Chrysanthemum Silver Gilt Vegetable Dish by Tiffany & Co.

Created by the inimitable American silversmiths Tiffany & Co., this exceptionally rare silver gilt covered vegetable dish is fit for an elegant table. Crafted in the firm's highly coveted Chrysanthemum pattern, the dish is an exquisite example of Tiffany’s talent for detailed craftsmanship, from the floral borders to the intricately executed chrysanthemum bloom that forms its handle. Even the "ACL" monogram on the dish's lid is executed with a chrysanthemum flourish at the center. A truly elegant serving piece, this dish brings together timeless style and function into one impeccable design.

Introduced in 1878, Tiffany's Chrysanthemum has become one of the most highly collectible silver patterns ever created. Its intricate flowing lines embodied the Art Nouveau style that pervaded the decorative arts at the turn of the century, and it is still considered the top pattern Tiffany & Co. ever produced. Silver gilt examples in this coveted pattern are particularly prized.
