Product Description
A fine and impressive antique George V English sterling silver sugar caster; an addition to our silver teaware collection.
This fine antique George V sterling silver sugar caster has a plain panelled baluster shaped form onto a spreading domed foot.
The surface of the caster is plain and encompassed with applied moulded borders.
This sterling silver caster retains the original hallmarked push fit cover, embellished with pierced scrolling decoration in addition to an applied moulded border to the rim.
The cover is surmounted by an impressive sterling silver panelled baluster shaped finial.
The underside of this antique sugar caster bears the retailer's mark 'Reid & Sons, Newcastle On Tyne' in addition to the registration number 'RD631976'.
This exceptional caster was crafted by the provincial Newcastle silversmiths Reid & Sons; the Newcastle Assay Office closed in 1884, therefore the piece was assayed in London.
Condition
This antique silver sugar caster is a very good gauge of silver, fine quality and in excellent condition.
The piece has been professionally polished and is in presentation condition.
Full hallmarks struck to the surface of the body and part hallmarks to the sleeve of the cover are all very clear.
Reflections in photography may detract from the true representation of this example of antique silverware.
