A PAIR OF CHARLES II SILVER-GILT FRUIT DISHES
MAKER'S MARK WH A STAR ABOVE AND THREE RINGS AND A ROSETTE BELOW, PROBABLY LONDON, CIRCA 1670
Shaped circular, the surfaces with sweeping lobes chased with an outer ring of flowers and inner rings of later grape leaves and furled acanthus centered by a later engraved coat-of-arms under a strapwork mantle, on a low spreading circular foot, marked on rims with maker's mark only, twice to one, once to the other
14 ¾ in. (37.4 cm.) diameter
65 oz. 8 dwt. (2,033.9 gr.)
The coat-of-arms engraved on the present dishes are those of Tynte with another in pretence, probably Kemeys, foror Sir John Tynte, 2nd Baronet, Halswell, County Somerset (1683-1710), and his wife Jane Kemeys (1685-1747), daughter and heiress of Sir Charles Kemeys, 3rd Baronet of Cefn Mably, County Glamorgan, whom he married in 1704, however she was not an heiress during this marriage suggesting the arms are later representations of the union.

The inner border of chased vine leaves and the style of the engraved cartouche surrounding the arms point to a later date of execution, perhaps in the early 19th century, and in the antiquarian style. When much of the Kemeys Tynte silver was sold by Lord Wharton, a descendent, in 1966 it included a number of items acquired at the 1843 Christie's sale of the Duke of Sussex 's collection, suggesting an interest in antiquarian and foreign silver.
