AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Set of silver salt cellars in Victorian style, beautiful eight-sided model standing on a pedestal foot, with the original blue glass liners.
One silver salt spoon is included; this is originally part of the set.
Both pieces bear all English hallmarks:
- Maker's mark J&C = Jones & Crompton (Edward Samuel Jones & Hubert Crompton)
- Left-facing lion for English sterling silver
- City mark of Birmingham
- Date letter u for 1919
The salt spoon has the same marks, only with date letter t for 1918.
Diameter of body 5.5 cm / rim and foot 4.5 cm.
Width at the handles 8.4 cm.
Height at the rim 5.5 cm / at the handles 6.5 cm.
Length of the salt spoon 5.5 cm.
Silver weight 66 g.
Total weight 126 g.
The silver on both salt cellars shows some signs of wear.
One has a few small dents on one side and the other has light openings/cracks at the corners, see photos... this is not troublesome and they can of course still be used.
Otherwise they are in good condition, as is the spoon.
They will be well and carefully packed.
Registered/insured shipping.
Fast shipping but collection is also possible.
