James W. Tufts Victorian Figural Quadruple Plate Table Set - This American Victorian silverplated table accessory set is attributed to James W. Tufts of Boston, Massachusetts. The set consists of five individual components: a rectangular base raised on scrolled feet, a central figural statue depicting a putto or cherub, an engraved cylindrical napkin ring, a handled pepper shaker, and a matching open salt cellar. The piece exhibits late 19th-century aesthetic styling with detailed chasing and engraving, particularly on the napkin ring and the border of the tray. The underside of the base features the manufacturer's mark, reading JAMES W. TUFTS BOSTON WARRENTED QUADRUPLE PLATE, along with the production numbers 1451 and 29.
