A decorative and ornate mid-Victorian 9-1/4" tall figural egg warmer c1860s. This silverplated table serving dish is as ornamental as it is useful - it is in the form of an egg with a bird finial. The finial is ornately cast and the hand-made retaining loop-form nut is in the form of a clutch of three eggs from the top. The lid is stamped 391, which is the only marking on this item. The scroll legs are fancy and the base has an indentation for a small candle or burner; there is a silverplated wirework footed interior support for four eggs. The bolts holding the burner tray are handmade and the base metal is brass. There is an engraved dedication on one side stating: PRESENTED TO ST. ROLLOX BOWLING CLUB BY THOMAS ROSS ESQr. WON BY MR. JOHN CRAWFORD, 1868. The club was established in Glasgow, Scotland in 1857, and this award trophy is in excellent original condition with no dents, bends, corrosion, losses, damage or repairs other than some wear to the silverplating on the lid showing some brass, a patch of dullness on the bird finial's back, and some brass showing under the engraved inscription. All
