Check Out Our Feedback
This exceptional antique Victorian teaware set consists of a cream jug, a sugar bowl, six teaspoons and pair of sugar tongs.
The cream jug and sugar bowl have an oval rounded form onto a circular spreading stepped bead decorated base.
The bodies of the sugar bowl and cream jug are embellished with panels of fine chased and embossed floral and foliate decoration on a matte background incorporating a shaped vacant cartouche to one side.
The cream jug is fitted with an impressive chased floral and scroll decorated S scroll handle, with a looped upper terminal.
The fine set of spoons has been crafted in the Onslow style augmented with chased floral and foliate decoration to the shaped terminals.
The bowls of the spoons are ornamented with fine chased exotic masks on a radiating sunburst design.
The handles of the tong are embellished with further floral, foliate and scroll decoration.
This Victorian set retains the original hinged leatherette box with satin and velvet lined interior and a push fit catch.
The interior of the box bears the retailer’s mark ‘The Association of Diamond Merchants Jewellers & Silversmiths, 6 Grand Hotel Buildings Trafalgar Square London’.
Condition
The components of this antique set are a very good gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional presentation condition.
The box is in excellent condition in keeping with age.
The embossed and chased decoration is very sharp.
Full hallmarks struck to the surface of the cream jug and sugar bowl, to the reverse of each spoon and interior of the tongs are all very clear.
Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of these examples of Victorian silverware.
