Crafted with a rich mahogany look, this chest is adorned with a detailed kylix shaped urn. The urn copies a detail on a Baltimore demilune sideboard table, circa 1800, in the Colonial Williamsburg collections. The Fitzhugh Silver Chest carries on the old Southern tradition of displaying handsome knife cases on the sideboard. Its name pays tribute to the 17th-century Virginia silver collector William Fitzhugh, who outfitted his plantation house with a "handsome cupboard of plate" (as sterling was called). Holds 150 pieces of flatware.

Williamsburg by Reed & Barton:
Williamsburg, Virginia has always been a place where Christmas is breathtaking, spring comes early, and hospitality is a hallmark. As capital of England’s oldest and wealthiest American colony,
Williamsburg was a powerful center of thought and culture in the 18th century.
For centuries,
Williamsburg’s gardens—spanning the regal grounds of the Governor’s Palace to simple kitchen plots—have played an important role in the town life. With their stunning colors and variety of plantings, the city’s many renowned gardens still attract visitors from around the world.
