VTG Gold Tone Pedestal Punch Bowl Set 10 Cups Baroque Rococo + Solingen Ladle

Vintage Gold Tone Punch Bowl Set with 10 Cups, Baroque Rococo Centerpiece, Hollywood Regency Decor, Bonus Solingen Gold Plated Ladle  Large vintage gold-tone punch bowl set featuring an ornate pedestal bowl with a dramatic scalloped floral rim and 10 coordinating footed cups with decorative scroll handles.  The bowl and cups are unmarked. Their maker, country of origin, exact metal composition, and precise date are unknown.  The Solingen ladle is not original to this punch bowl set and is included separately as a bonus. It is marked SOLINGEN 18/10 23/24 KARAT HARTVERGOLDET, identifying it as German 18/10 stainless steel with a durable 23/24-karat hard gold-plated finish.  The bowl measures approximately 12 in diameter and 7.5 high. Each cup measures approximately 3 wide and 3 high.  The interior of the bowl has visible cloud-like patina and finish haze. Because of this condition, the set is recommended primarily for dry serving and decorative use rather than liquids. The bowl can hold whole fruit, dry desserts, wrapped candy, ornaments, artificial flowers, dried floral arrangements, or other dry displays. The cups may be used individually for dry desserts, wrapped sweets, party favors, or decorative accents.  This oversized statement piece works beautifully as a dining table centerpiece, buffet display, mantel accent, theatrical prop, photography prop, holiday centerpiece, wedding tablescape, or dramatic party decoration.
