Dessert Plate made of 925 Silver — For the Special Moment

A silver plate for desserts has a different function than a dinner plate: it presents, it highlights, it tells the guest that this moment is special. At 158 × 127 mm, it offers enough space for a dessert, a slice of cake, or an elaborate petit four — and with the niello ornamentation on its surface, it is itself part of the presentation.

The Niello Ornament: Surface and Contrast

The niello ornament covers the surface of this plate completely or around the edge — engraved areas filled with deep black niello inlay, polished silver raised details. The contrast between black and silver is particularly visible on a plate surface: the ornament unfolds upon viewing without tiring the eye. Each use reveals the piece anew.

SevChern — Table Silver from Veliky Ustyug

SevChern has been crafting in Veliky Ustyug, Northern Russia, since 1683 — winning a gold medal in Paris in 1937. Silver plates and bowls are central to their traditional product range. The niello technique — engraving, melting, grinding, polishing — gives each piece its characteristic black-and-silver ornament.

As a Gift: Silver Plate for Special Occasions

A 925 sterling silver plate is a lasting gift that finds a permanent place — on the table, in a display cabinet, or in the kitchen for special occasions. It is suitable for anniversaries, birthdays, Easter, or Christmas. A gift box is included.

Engraving Upon Request

Upon request, we can engrave a dedication on the back of the plate. The SilberVerse card (10 × 15 cm, currently free, individually inscribed) complements the gift.

Care

Hand wash — no dishwasher. The niello ornament is permanently fused. A soft silver polishing cloth cares for the polished surfaces. Store dry.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is this plate suitable for?
As a dessert plate, pastry plate, bread plate, or presentation plate. Also as a collector's item or wall decoration.

What is the difference between this plate and SW11384?
SW11384 (hunting collection, round Ø150 mm) features a hunting motif. This plate (L158 × W127 mm, slightly oval) has its own niello ornament without a specific hunting motif. Both are made of 925 silver with niello.

What is Niello?
Niello is a blackening alloy that is melted into engraved silver depressions. It permanently bonds with the silver — not a coating that can peel off.
