Long Description
Silverplate Roberts & Belk "candy dish"? from England. Is in very good condition. No dings or dangs. Light tarnish in creases and in back very slight wear of silver.   The shell opens and closes, It has only two leaf feet in back.   The top hallmarks would indicate that the item is from between 1863 - 1901 (from my research). The bottom mark with the Made in England places it after 1930, Could that part been added on later?
