A pair of nineteenth-century Old Sheffield Plate silver-on-copper wine coolers of campana form, each featuring a detachable rim insert and a cylindrical interior liner flanked by two foliate-molded side handles, the body decorated with chased acanthus leaf accents and a gadrooned border, the underside bearing the stamped open hand device mark of Nathaniel Smith & Co.
Silverplate, Copper
each: 10 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches
each stamped to base
Overall good condition; one liner insert appears to have been reattached with soft solder, minor localized bleed-through exposure of the underlying copper layer along the raised gadrooned borders, typical surface micro-scratching from historical polishing, and small superficial scuffs consistent with age and typical usage
