Drew & Sons, London, Sterling Silver Screw Top Jar
Silver: Sterling: Hollowware
Old Friends 
1566fw $ 185
Fully stamped for London, sterling, and a date letter "r" for 1912, this item is also impressed "Drew & Sons, Piccadilly Circus," and "S.S.D" over "E.D" in a shield for Samuel Summers and Ernest Drew.
A high end retailer, this company apparently traded in leather goods, personal items, luggage, pen sets, and silver items (cited as beginning in 1887). Sources indicate S.S. Drew himself retired or died in 1914, so this dates from his tenure, a high point for the firm.
It is a 3" high by... Click for details
