A toast rack by Christopher Dresser, and what sits next to it

Among thirty-nine objects on this page there is a silver-plated toast rack carrying the name of Christopher Dresser, the Victorian designer whose metalwork anticipated the twentieth century by several decades. Next to it, a European silver plate tray with its liqueur cups, antique silver plate teaspoons, coffee bean spoons with Bakelite ends, a set of five chrome leaf trays and Art Deco sorbet dishes for the aperitif hour. This is the register Aesthete Label works in: metal objects for the table, found in Britain and on the Continent, dated anywhere between the Georgian period and the 1970s, and sold one at a time.

The shell returns in several forms. The Vintage Silver-Plated Shell Dish is the largest; the Silver-Plated Trefoil Shell Feet Serving Dish stands on three small shells of its own; the Silver Posy Bowl is scaled for a few stems. On a console they hold keys; on a dining table they serve. These silver serving dishes are the backbone of the selection, with chrome and pewter as counterpoint. Aesthete Label's own text speaks of a home where kindness and aesthetics co-exist, built in layers, and the layering is literal: a Georgian dish under a 1960s candle holder, both on the same sideboard.

Candlelight gets heavy objects. The Modernist Large Steel Tulip Candle Holder and the Post Modern Steel Large Candle Holder weigh down a mantelpiece; a French Luberon holder from the 1960s combines stone and metal; a chrome four-arm candelabra, a pair of German holders, antique chambersticks and an Italian ribbon holder fill out the silver candle holder shelf. The vases move across materials: the Art Deco Silver Plate Fluted Vase and a French Art Deco vase on a plated base; a large verdigris vase by Francesco Figueras and a carved ceramic vase in black and green; a dinanderie vase in copper and brass; a Large Murano Scavo Glass Vase with its rough, excavated surface, listed among The Oblist's vintage Murano glass vases. A Gustavsberg Argenta footed bowl in mottled turquoise and a Cloud Bowl in emerald marble close the group.

Everything Aesthete Label lists here is a one-off vintage object; condition and dimensions are given on the product page. Interior designers and architects sourcing Aesthete Label pieces for a residential or hospitality project can work with The Oblist through the Architect Trade Program.
