A good sterling mug of squat, baluster form and scroll handle. In very good condition with nice patina and nice weight.
A few very shallow dings to the body through usage more than ill-treatment.
A contemporary scrolling monogram, R, in the front.
No repairs or splits.
Clear hallmarks to the base for William Cox or Garrard, London 1778. Not sure if it is a C or a G. The lower part of the letter does straighten up a bit at the end.

A very fine large sterling salver by Hester Bateman, clearly hallmarked for London 1788. It is has the fine beaded edge along the circumference and around the 4 tall triangle feet, for which she is famous.

I have not been able to trace the arms or the motto.

A wonderful pair of sterling chambersticks made in London by
Robert Garrard in 1829.
They are in very exceptional condition apart from the expected very
age-related dings. Every separate piece, body, bobeche and snuffer,
is fully hallmarked and crested. The crown above the maker's mark
signified a Royal silversmith, silversmiths to the reigning monarch
George IV, in this case.
The slots are for the wick-trimmers, which are no longer around.
Most chambersticks do not accommodate a tr ...click for details

kitchen, this example was made when silversmiths were searching
around for alternate forms for this very treasured and sought-after
article.
This one has a brass grill, usually steel, enclosed in a shell,
scroll and gadrooned sterling frame. The lower cover is hinged to
