Mytilidae dish

The Mytilidae dish is a sterling silver hand raised dish with a gilded interior. Designed as a large table centrepiece to hold and serve freshwater mussels, the piece was commissioned by the Worshipful Company Of Goldsmiths as the winning entry for their Young Designer Silversmith Award 2010. The form echoes the shape of freshwater mussel shells and the shallow rock pools in which they can be found.
