The piece is elegantly designed with a broad circular bowl finished with richly defined **gadrooned ornamental borders**, lending a classical and sophisticated character to the overall form. A pair of gracefully shaped carrying handles extends from either side, creating an impressive symmetrical profile and adding both decorative and practical appeal. The bowl is supported upon a **tapering cylindrical stem**, descending to a broad conical pedestal foot that provides excellent visual balance and gives the piece a commanding presence as a table centrepiece. Fully hallmarked for **sheffield 1911**, the tazza bears the maker’s mark for **lee & wigfull (henry wigfull)** of john street works, highfield, sheffield. Crafted entirely in sterling silver, the piece has an impressive **net silver weight of approximately 619.8 grams**, reflecting its substantial construction and quality. Presented in very good antique condition with a beautiful bright patina. There are no noted holes, bruises, damage or repairs, and the piece remains free from later engraved presentation inscriptions or monograms. Clean and ready for use or display, this is an impressive example of early 20th-century sheffield silver, equally suitable as a compotier, serving tazza or decorative table centrepiece.
