EMILIA CASTILLO Monumental Copper & Sterling Plated Very Large Hand Hammered Server
Two Black Metallic Bird Decorations on each side of the swirling Silver Ends

This is an extraordinary piece of Art for your Table.
It is more than a Copper & Silver Platter, it is an artifact of substance and great beauty.

This is a charmingly whimsical ART-TO-TABLE Silver Plateado Platter
Perfect for the serving of an entire fish to the table
I can't think of anything more perfect than a Poached Salmon decorated with Cucumbers and Dill
Donning this amazing Serving Tray
Totally Hand Finished and Hand Hammered by Designer Emilia Castillo,
daughter of the famed Los Castillo family of artisans in Taxco, Mexico.
It is an elegant rendition of Birds Nesting on the sides of the elongated Platter.
Castillo is fond of depicting "Critters in Motion", this fits the bill!
The articulation of detail on the figural Birds add to the texture and elaborateness of the design.

Castillos' Collection of Home Accessories were sold exclusively at Neiman Marcus.
Her Pieces have very limited represenation
making it even more difficult to find,
more collectable and certainly more valuable.

This is a Statement Home Accessory that will never go unnoticed!
Perfect Brand New condition from Neiman Marcus
Shiny bright Surface with delicious Hand Hammered Copper Mottled Finish
With Swirls of Silver Plate rolling at the ends as the "Bark of the Tree" on a rolling hill
I love the variations in finish, with an "antiqued" mottled surface
The Black Birds are perched on the curves at opposite ends of the tray
They are also made out of metal from the feel of them
Although I thought they might be made of horn
The birds are poised to take flight
The Shape of the platter is very long, slender and elegant
All in Perfect Copper & Silver Plate
