This antique hotelware serving platter was commissioned by Lamport and Holt Ocean Liner. From 1902 to 1928, the company operated significant passenger ocean liner services, trading with the east coast of South America and connecting New York, Britain, and mainland Europe. This platter embodies the elegance and sophistication of early 20th-century ocean travel, making it a perfect addition for collectors and enthusiasts of nautical artifacts. William Hutton & Sons marks stamped on the back.
