Product Description
Made around 1972, this antique brass steaming plate features a shallow circular form with evenly spaced perforations across the base and a defined raised rim. The flat profile and structured edge indicate it was designed to sit inside a larger vessel, reflecting practical cooking accessories commonly used during the early 1970s.

This plate is suitable for steaming vegetables, dumplings, idli-style preparations, or other foods that require separation from direct boiling water. The perforated base allows steam circulation while keeping contents elevated. It can also function as a draining insert when placed inside a compatible pot.

With its solid brass construction, compact dimensions, and functional perforation design, this steaming plate represents practical kitchen metalware from its era, offering structured cooking support with durable craftsmanship.
