Gilded Age Baroque Lg. Butler Tray Silver Plated withHandles & Coat of Arms
Ahh, you have a Butler. And he needs a tray. This one came from a New England mansion (shh-Newport) and has all the bells and whistles of “Quality”. It is heavily decorated, engraved with flowers and swirling foliage in the Baroque style and has a marvelous Coat of Arms in the center and a French motto —“en dieu est tout” which translates “in god is all”. Newporters still refer to the colonial British occupation of the city by sea until the French arrived. Could there be a connection to the family that owned this masterpiece? And imagine — during the Gilded Age the Barons of Industry who built their mansions along Bellevue Ave and Ochre Point? This tray fit in perfectly during that extravaganza. Why not make this your tray? And create your story. Heavy – 11 pounds 3 oz. Overall size – 30″ x 18″. Like me it is old, tarnished and in used condition. And like me —Fabulous! NOTE: The motto was used early on by the Wentworth family. Early Notables of the Wentworth family (pre 1700). Notables of this surname at this time include: Roger Wentworth (died 1462), esquire, of North Elmsall, Yorkshire; and his son, Sir Philip Wentworth, Knight, of Nettlestead, Suffolk c. 1499, de jure 4th Baron Despenser, grandfather of Henry VIII’s third wife, Jane Seymour, and the great-grandfather of Jane’s son, Edward VI; Margaret Wentworth c. 1550, wife of Sir John Seymour and the mother of Queen Jane Seymour, the third wife of Henry VIII of England, grandmother of King Edward VI of England; Thomas Wentworth, 1st Baron Wentworth… Butler Tray Silver Plated w/Handles & Coat of Arms.
