5″ silverplated Armada Dish

Why Choose an Armada Dish? Also known as Elizabethan dishes, Armada Dishes carry a romantic legacy. Legend has it that silver bowls like these were discovered in the officers’ quarters of ships sunk during the Spanish Armada conflict of 1588, in the time of Sir Francis Drake and Queen Elizabeth I. Whether fact or folklore, these elegant bowls—with their distinctive raised centre—remain timeless favourites. Perfect as presentation pieces for sporting events, special awards, retirements, or commemorative occasions, Armada Dishes are both versatile and meaningful. They can be engraved (optional) in a variety of ways—around the rim or on the reverse—to create a truly personal gift. We also offer these in Assay Assured 958 Britannia Silver.�� [Click here to view] If you would like to have your Armada Dish engraved by us please contact us so we can quote you individually as there so many different alternative ways to engrave these lovely bowls.
