Found in Montpelier, this 19th century silver dish would have been used for small things passed around the table - olives, sugared almonds, slices of fruit, or whatever the host had set out before a meal. In southern French homes, pieces like this were constantly in motion between kitchen and dining room. Sylvie fills it with lemons or keeps it on the table to catch wine corks as the night goes on.
