The Wine Coasters are circular in form with a beaded base and rim. The sides are finely pierced with Neo Gothic pails, as well as Classical laurel leaf swags and raying flower heads in roundels. The front displays a circular cartouche engraved with a contemporary Crest. The Coasters have silver bases, a design which was made for, and popular with, the upper echelons of society. Both are in excellent condition and are very well marked.
William Plummer was a prolific pierced worker who made very fine baskets and wine coasters.
