Description
Sheffield Silent Butler 269
This vintage item is a classy Sheffield Silver Co. electroplate silver portable tray with a hinged lid and wood handle used to collect ashtray contents or crumbs from a dinner table.
A coat of arms is etched on the lid and the marks are etched on the bottom with E P C, a lion head, a crown, and a fancy S.
There are some cigarette burn marks on the inside (see pic). Otherwise, this item is in excellent condition. See it Live on our YouTube channel. This item (aka ash butler) makes a terrific gift.
