$275 USDVictorian Silver and Mother of Pearl Caddy Spoon: Hallmarked Birmingham 1897
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Caddy Spoon:Caddy Scoop
A delightful sterling silver caddy spoon or scoop, with a mother pf pearl handle. Fully hallmarked for Birmingham 1897, maker's mark H&T. It measures 3.75 inches in length (9.5 cm). There is an old silver solder repair to the base of the spoon, which can be seen in the pictures, but otherwise it is in excellent condition. A delightful addition to your collection, and even more delightful to use. Free Air Mail shipping.
$250 USDSterling Silver Cheroot Case: Hallmarked 1901
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Tobacciana:Cheroot Case:Cigar:Cigarette
A very pretty Sterling Silver Cheroot Case, hallmarked 1901. I gave this to my mother many years ago, hoping it would fit her cigarettes, but she smoked long, tipped ones and I suspect it didn't. Nonetheless, she treasured it. Delightfully and crisply engraved with flowing scrollwork and flowers, initialled in that script which is so pretty and so hard to read, but probably JGS or IGS.Unusually, one of the elastic straps inside remains in place. Hallmarked inside on both sides, only one being ...
$125 USDScottish Georgian Sterling Silver Sauce Ladle: 1818
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Scottish:Georgian:Ladle
A Scottish Georgian sterling silver sauce ladle, hallmarked in Edinburgh in 1818, marked J Mc for John McKay, who was admitted to the guild of Edinburgh goldsmiths in 1793. Beautifully simple fiddle shape, with a single letter R, somewhat rubbed, engraved on the handle. The bowl maybe slightly out of shape, but otherwise in excellent and relatively unworn condition. A fraction over six inches in overall length, it weighs 32.5 grams. There may be a slight kink to the handle just before it ...
$275 USDSterling Silver Repousse Sugar Bowl: Hallmarked Sheffield 1902
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Edwardian:Repousse
A beautiful sterling silver repousse sugar bowl, hallmarked in Sheffield, England in 1902, Maker's mark FBs Ltd. Heavily decorated with flowers, scrolling foliage and two empty cartouches. It measures 4.5 inches in diameter across the top (11.5cm) and 3 inches (7.5cm) in height and weighs 125 grams.
$275 USDCharley's Aunt Sterling Silver Vesta Case/Matchsafe hallmarked 1895 (Free Shipping)
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Vesta Case:Theatrical
A sterling silver vesta case (matchsafe) by Walker & Hall of Sheffield, hallmarked in Sheffield in 1895 and portraying Charley's Aunt, from the play of the same name. On the back is the inscription, rather rubbed, 'From Charley's Aunt Dec 21st 1895'. These were apparently handed out to the male members of the audience on the First Night of the play. Not in the best of condition, obviously worn and used for many years, the hinge damaged and lacking in spring, but a rare piece of theatrical ...
$450 USDDelightful Duck Salt with Green Glass Liner: Hallmarked 1906
Silver:Antique:Salt:Duck
A beautiful duck salt, the silver duck itself far more commonly seen in the form of a pincushion, but this one lined with green glass. Hallmarked in Birmingham, 1906, maker's mark C & N. From the tip of her beak to the tip of her tail she measures about 3 3/4 inches (9.5cm). The only fault I can see is that one of her tiny eyes is missing. This is a beautiful piece, full of character. Free Air Mail shipping anywhere
$75 USDA Victorian silver bonbon dish, 1897 (Free Shipping)
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Victorian:Bonbon
A Victorian silver bonbon dish, hallmarked in Birmingham in 1897. It has a prettily pierced rim and measures about 4.7 inches in diameter. The full UK hallmark is shown but it is well hidden in the scrollwork. The maker's mark is CS FS with possibly a badly struck '&' in between. I am informed (thank you, A.C.) that this is Cornelius Saunders & Francis Shepard. A few minute dents on the plain base, and a few tiny dull spots which will gradually disappear with frequent gentle polishing, but ...
$65 USDA Pair of Victorian Salt Spoons: 1855 (Free Shipping)
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Salt
A typically Victorian pair of salt spoons, hallmarked in Glasgow in 1855. They are approximately 4.1 inches long, carry an initial which is probably G, and have some pitting in the bowls, which can be seen in the scan, no doubt caused by the salt for which they were used. Free Air Mail shipping anywhere.
$125 USDA Handsome Pair of Silver-Handled Fish Servers circa 1880
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Flatware:Cutlery
A handsome pair of silver-handled fish servers, missing their date mark, probably by John Round of Sheffield, circa 1880. They could also be by Joseph Rodgers. They may not look very practical, but are very useful when serving a large fish such as a whole poached salmon. I recommend poaching as a way of cooking the salmon, but not as a method for obtaining it!
$475 USD Sale PendingSALE PENDING Silver Ploughing Medal: Highland Society of Scotland: 1811
Silver:Antique:Sterling:Medal:Scottish:Agricultural:Georgian
A sterling silver medal from the reign of George III, presented by the Highland Society of Scotland to Mr John Duncan in 1811. Hallmarked in Edinburgh in 1811, maker J.Mc (probably J. McKay) The side opposite the inscription carries a beautiful depiction of a plough, hence my opinion that this was a medal won in a ploughing match, a popular test of strength and skill at the time. This is a large medal, not thick front to back but the oval measuring two and one eighth inches by one and five ...| Items 1 - 10 of 10 | Page 1 of 1 |
