ORNATE ANTIQUE SILVER WALKING STICK CANE POMMEL HANDLE Item #31383
A nice looking cane handle of pommel form with lovely repouse scrolled floral decoration. There are no visible hallmarks so technically selling this as ‘white metal’ but it obviously is silver. Would work with a stick of about 3/4 of an inch diameter. Some denting mainly to the opened lower rim area but in good overall shape.
ORNATE ANTIQUE STERLING SILVER DOUBLE POSTAGE STAMP CASE Item #31384
A beautiful sterling silver double postage stamp case with ornate chased scroll decoration around a central monogram of ‘EK’. The button is made from a small turquoise coloured stone. Made by Ahronsberg Brothers, the hallmarks are unfortunately very rubbed but will date c. 1905. In fine overall shape with some shallow dents to the rear.
FINE ANTIQUE S. MORDAN SILVER TELESCOPIC PENCIL Item #31389
A lovely late c.19th piece by Sampson Mordan, this is a telescopic pencil with suspension rim. Its resting size is c. 7cm and extends to 15.5cm. It takes VS size lead. It does not have hallmarks so technically sold as ‘white metal’, but it is silver. One tiny knock to one of the internal chambers otherwise fine.
ANTIQUE STERLING SILVER CUT GLASS INKWELL LONDON 1910 Item #31399
A nice front facing cut glass inkwell with double recesses for a pen or nibs and a silver rim fully hallmarked for London 1910. Some tiny fleabites to the glass, no real damage to it. The silver rim has some knocks.
PAIR COALPORT ATTRIBUTED PORCELAIN SUCRIER C. 1840 Item #31402
A fine looking pair of gilt on porcelain sucriers that have apparently been attributed to Coalport by Henry Sandon c. 1840 according to the handwritten tag that came with them. We are not experts in early Coalport so you will need to make your own mind up on these before bidding. They are fine looking pieces anyway! Both looks superb, there is a professional very small repair to one of the footrims which has been properly decorated over with matching gilt work and a very tiny and insignificant chip to interior rim of one of the lids – otherwise super!
ANTIQUE POSSIBLY COALPORT PORCELAIN SUCRIER Item #31404
A fine looking gilt and cobalt blue on porcelain sucrier, looks like Coalport but not marked as such. Very minor gilt rub to decoration. There is a small ‘star craze’ type line to interior of body that doesn’t come thru to exterior so not cracked. There are some historical repairs to the interior rim that are not that obvious. Pings well etc.
