Equestrian Catchall | Silver
A distinctively Hermès piece that pays tribute to their equestrian origins, this well-made silver dish is the perfect accessory to complement any foyer or living room. Believed to have been designed and crafted in France in the 1970s or 80s by Ravinet d’Enfert, the delightful depiction of a horse's head is just one of many designs through the years, each with its own charm.
Believed to have been designed and crafted in France in the 1970s or 80s by Ravinet d’Enfert - the renowned Parisian silversmiths favoured by Hermès - the proportions of this silver dish are pleasingly shaped, resulting in the very natural, almost pebble-like appearance of the base.
Naturally, the most outstanding part of the dish is the curved handle that culminates in an elegantly cast horse head, adding a touch of whimsy and flair to an otherwise fairly functional object, and paying tribute to Hermès' equestrian history. The variations of these depictions form another interesting part of Hermès' long history, coming in all sizes and shapes and styles. Additionally, the dish has developed a patina over the years, showing the age of the object and only adding to its vintage allure.
This silver dish is the perfect accessory for any living room, either used as a catch-all, bottle or possibly a candle holder, standing out thanks to its artistically placed horse head and elegant appearance.
If sold within the United Kingdom, this Hermès tray will be subject to 20% VAT.
