English hammered copper charger. From Webstraunt Store: “A charger plate is a large, decorative base setting on top of which other dinnerware is placed during formal occasions such as catered events, weddings, upscale parties, banquets, or in fine dining restaurants. Also known as service plates, under plates, or chop plates, charger plates are merely decorative, and are not meant to come in direct contact with food. Charger plates provide an elegant way to serve multiple course meals, where each course is served in its own separate bowl or plate, and placed on top of the charger.”
This plate has a hook on the back for hanging on the wall as decoration. This piece is 16.75” in diameter and has light patina showing off its age (see condition notes for more details).
