I have had numerous small mugs from the Georgian period but never one of this form, and never one that could be described as a child's mug.It has cute applied borders and an attractive cast handle. Never been inscribed. Visible construction seam by the handle and a turned base.
It has some intriguing scratched figures on the base, some small but all very light, that probably pertain to the construction. The most prominent is: 914 = 5" 7 dw. I am not sure of the 914 but 5" 7 dw wou ...click for details

An aesthetically pleasing repousse sterling tray, oval in form on an oval foot, with twin-looped naturalistic handles. The central oval clearing has an interesting crest of intertwined sprigs of a rose and a thistle. Seems to suggest an alliance, or marriage, of Scotland and England.

A fabulous sterling basket with a hammered texture and a carved simulated rope ebony handle.
Unfortunately it is unascribed, only marked with Sterling and 925. It is very much in the style of Georg Jensen which leads me to believe that it was made by La Paglia. La Paglia was greatly influenced by the Danish silversmiths designs and I have had a number of hand-crafted items attributed to La Paglia with just the Sterling mark.
Excellent condition.

Here is a small sterling carriage clock made about 1916 with a fitted case. Normally they are made of brass and are about 4" to 6" high, and the name derives from the fact that they were designed to be used in carriages, i.e. they were transportable. They were the first mobile clocks.
The movement is brass and is fitted in a sterling case.
It was probably made in Switzerland and imported into London in 1916, according to the hallmarks. I have not been able to trace the maker, JTC, b ...click for details

A very elegant pair of sterling repousse gravy boats retailed by J.E Caldwell & Co., of Philadelphia and dated 1884. They have a graceful, 18th century form decorated with dense repousse-work, edged with a gadrooned rim. Each has a naturalistic handle and is supported on three shell feet.
There is an inscription on the base which reads:
