Salt cellar (4) - .925 silver

Pair of Victorian salt cellars with spoons – Sterling Silver 925 – London, 1859 Elegant pair of English Victorian salt cellars made in Sterling Silver 925 and tested/marked in London in 1859, during the reign of Queen Victoria. The salt cellars feature an elegant circular slightly domed body, supported on three decorative feet. The upper rim is ornamented with a delicate beaded moulding, and the interiors retain an attractive gilded finish, traditionally used to protect silver from direct contact with salt. The pieces retain their original English assay marks corresponding to the London Assay Office, allowing dating to 1859. The set also includes two Sterling Silver spoons, assayed in Birmingham at the beginning of the 20th century. The spoons are later than the salt cellars and do not necessarily form part of the original set, although they constitute a harmonious and functional combination.
