Vintage style shell butter dish Coquillor

An essential for the dining arts! Vintage silver-plated butter dish in the shape of a scallop shell, in the spirit of Coquillor models. The butter is dispensed by pressing through the designated openings, making it easy to form knobs and shavings. There is a hallmark (silver-plated metal, not solid silver). Very good vintage condition with slight signs of wear consistent with age and use.
