Title: warming platter
Post by: fibermedics on December 20, 2005, 06:50:14 PM

hello,

I have a warming platter given to me by my mother which was her mothers.  It is an oval platter with a colorful peacock in the middle. It has a handle on each side and a spout that you can fill with hot water to keep the platter warm.  It also has a dome lid.  On the bottom of this platter it's marked Manf'd by Buffalo MFG Co. I'm looking for any information on it's value to how old it is. If anyone could help me I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank-you

If that's your platter, hang on to it.  This stuff is getting more collectible with time.  Not sure of year.  Looks 40's  50's to me but I'm no expert.  

Best wishes and Merry Christmas.         KB

thank-you for the pictures!! The buffalo warming platter is it!  The only difference is the peacock on my platter does not have it's wings extended at all. I have no plans on ever selling , I just never could find any information about it until today!  Thanks so much!
