{"product_id":"elkington-co-silverplate-charger-by-morel-ladeuil","title":"Elkington \u0026 Co. Silverplate Charger by Morel-Ladeuil","description":"An important antique silverplate charger created by Elkington \u0026amp; Co., based on a sculpture by French artist Morel Ladeuil. Cast by one of the most significant and highly respected English silver firms in history, the classically-designed repoussé form displays an intimate scene of a lady being dressed by her attendants. Surrounded by a border of Greek anthemions and supported its elm and mahogany solid wood frame, this plaque is a tour-de-force of silver plate artistry.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Elkington \u0026amp; Co. patented the first commercial electroplating process and held Royal Warrants for Queen Victoria, King Edward VI, King George V, King Edward VIII and King George VI. French-born master goldsmith and sculptor, Leonard Morel-Ladeuil (1820 - 1888), went to work for Elkington in 1859 and worked there for a total of 23 years. This monumental charger is arguably the finest result of this highly successful collaboration.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Marked “Elkington 90”  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  Circa 1890  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  24\" diameter","brand":"MSR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50274931573026,"sku":"29-5635","price":9850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0961\/6710\/0706\/files\/29-5635_1_7fdc440a-1602-4ee2-a68f-789ed7fa4b92.png?v=1756229133","url":"https:\/\/banksyarts.com\/products\/elkington-co-silverplate-charger-by-morel-ladeuil","provider":"The Louvre of America","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
