A silverplate scallop shell dish with real presence deep fluted ribs that catch the light and a scalloped edge straight out of a well-set table. Turn it over and there's a lovely surprise: a finely engraved armorial crest tucked at the hinge, the little detail that tells you this one had a life before yours. Perfect for soap in a powder room, keys by the door, or berries on a summer table.

• Silverplate, footed scallop-shell form
