This exceptional antique Edwardian sterling standard solid silver bottle coaster has a plain cylindrical form to a domed spreading base.
The body of the coaster is embellished with fine and impressive bands of pierced interlacing leaf motifs, in addition to an applied moulded border to the undulating shaped upper rim.
This silver bottle coaster is fitted with two handles ornamented with leaf textures to the sockets and a knop to the centre of each handpiece.
The underside of this sterling silver wine coaster bears the retailer's mark 'Mappin & Webb, London'.
NOTE: The majority of such bottle coasters have a wooden base; it is a sign of quality when coasters have unlined, solid silver bases.
