Early Viennese silver sugar tongs, made in 1821, during the late Classicist period. Crafted from 13 loth silver (812.5‰) and fully hallmarked with clear Viennese marks. The maker is the documented Viennese silversmith Johann Dellyeur, whose marked works are recorded in early 19th-century Austrian auction and reference sources. The year 1821 places this piece in the transitional phase between Classicism and early Biedermeier, characterized by restrained design and balanced proportions. The leaf-shaped terminals and finely ribbed arms are typical features of this stylistic context.
