Silver Status
Cottages and Bungalows
|December - January 2018
The silver punch bowl is a shining example of a timeless collectible inspired by the spirit of the American Revolution.
What was once a symbol of status is now a staple for the modern-day entertainer.
The origin of punch bowls goes back to the 1600s, when they were used to chill glasses, display fruits, and even as flower vases. In those times, the size and number of bowls in your collection became part of your social identity. Today punch bowls are a lovely way to elevate your gathering, and they can be the crown jewel of your entertaining space.
