These dish rings, conceived in the classical style, derive from classical hollow-sided or waisted altar pedestals. They are embellished with a fretted ribbon guilloche of acanthus flowers emerging from Vitruvian acanthus-wrapped wave scrolls. A similar dish ring of the same year was sold Christie's New York, 22 October 1984, lot 79. Similarly decorated, it was further fitted with a ring supporting three burners and a detachable part-wood side handle. Another related dish ring by Matthew Boulton of Birmingham, 1774, is illustrated in R. Rowe, Adam Silver, London, 1965, pls. 54 and 55B.
