Vintage Silver-Plated Gallery Wine Coaster

This is a circular vintage silver-plated gallery wine or decanter coaster. It features a decorative pierced vertical gallery with a rolled rim, typical of Mid-Century or early 20th-century Neo-Classical styles. The base of the coaster is constructed with a central turned wooden or composition boss, which currently displays significant dark staining, likely from moisture or wine residue. The silver plating exhibits heavy tarnish, oxidation, and surface wear across both the inner base and the exterior railing, suggesting it has been stored in a humid environment. There are visible signs of pitting and potential plate loss along the edges. The craftsmanship indicates a functional yet elegant piece designed to protect tabletop surfaces from liquid rings. While no specific maker's marks are visible in the photograph, the style is consistent with high-quality silverplate manufacturers from the mid-1900s. The overall condition is poor to fair, requiring professional polishing and potentially restoration of the central decorative element to return it to a displayable state.
