Vintage Viners of Sheffield Silver Plate Rose Bowl with Flower Frog Grid

Arranging flowers without a structural grid usually results in a chaotic bundle leaning heavily to one side of the vessel. This vintage silver-plated rose bowl by Viners of Sheffield elegantly resolves that domestic frustration. It features a removable, interlocking circular wire mesh grid—a highly functional integrated flower frog—allowing you to position stems precisely where they ought to stay.

The bowl is styled with a gadrooned rim and features two handles mounted via remarkably crisp lion’s head masks. The base bears the clear, reassuring stamp of Viners, a name that generally implies solid mid-century Sheffield utility rather than delicate ornament.
Honest Anatomy:

The silver plate is exceptionally clean across the entire body, having polished up to a bright, reflective mirror finish. There are no worn patches to the plate and none of the internal corrosion or pitting that often plagues vessels used for water. The mesh grid fits snugly inside the rim and is entirely free of bent wires. The underside shows only minimal, faint shelf scuffs.

Dimensions:
• Rim Diameter: 12 cm (approx. 4.7 inches)
• Total Width (including handles): 13.5 cm (approx. 5.3 inches)
• Total Height: 7.5 cm (approx. 3.0 inches)
