Every table deserves something unique. This Antique Victorian Silver Plate 3 Part Dish adds a little extra sparkle to any table setting. In the 19th century, these 3 Part Dishes were created and called BBC’s. They were used for bread, butter and cheese. Whether for a holiday, birthday or impromptu gathering of friends and family, this 3 Part Dish can be used for many purposes such as hors d’oeuvres or after dinner candies.

Our Antique Victorian Silver Plate 3 Part Dish is in excellent condition and is very useable as well as being a real conversation piece.
