A rare and authentic piece of U.S. Navy wardroom silver, this covered serving dish (tureen) was produced by Reed & Barton for use aboard Navy vessels. Crafted in heavy silverplate and silver-soldered for durability, it features the classic fouled anchor with “USN” engraved on the lid.
Design: Oval dish with attached underplate, domed lid with decorative finial, and ladle notch
Era: Early-to-mid 20th century, likely WWII through 1950s
Dimensions: 5.5 inches tall, 8 inches long and 6 inches wide
