Make your next tablescape—or curated vignette—utterly unforgettable with this sculptural silver-plated fish platter. Cast in solid metal and finished with a silvery wash that has mellowed to a rich, time-softened patina, the piece marries whimsy and sophistication: crisp scale and fin detailing at the head and tail bookend a sleek, gently cupped body that’s ready for oysters on ice, a line of votives, or nothing more than admiring glances.
Vintage presence, modern versatility. Likely dating to the mid-20th century, the platter’s fluid silhouette slips effortlessly into coastal-chic, Hollywood Regency, or eclectic contemporary schemes.
Generous size. At 18 1/2" H x 5 1/2" W, it commands attention without overwhelming a coffee table, console, or bar cart.
Rich character. The surface shows subtle age-appropriate wear—exactly the sort of storied sheen designers crave for layered, lived-in spaces.
Multi-purpose styling. Serve canapés, corral remote controls, anchor a centerpiece of succulents, or mount it as kinetic wall art in a lake house mudroom.
Hand-wash only; polish or leave the tarnish to deepen for even more drama. Whether you’re staging a seaside pied-à-terre or hunting for that one-of-a-kind accent to finish a client’s dining room, this silvered swimmer delivers an effortless splash of character.
