Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:19253469 |
~ Welcome to William Sharpe Antiques ~ Here today for your consideration we have this superb large twin-handled sterling silver loving cup, made by notable silversmiths Walker & Hall of Birmingham, c-1946. This wonderful piece sits atop a simple plinth base and rises up through a plain silver body to a thick rim, embellished with stylistic handles to either side. Condition is good overall, with no major observable damage to note. There are the usual scratches and... pinpricks here and there, but nothing too serious. There is no monogram or engraving to the piece, and the hallmarks are nice and clear. The loving cup has been lightly polished with respect to patina. A nice one for the collection!
The piece has an overall height of 18.5cm, and has a diameter at the opening of about 12cm. Unpacked, the piece weighs in at a very respectable 397gms.
First founded in Sheffield c-1845 by George Walker, the firm became Walker & Hall in 1853 with the addition of partner Henry Hall. A name synonymous with quality and style, Walker & Hall had showrooms throughout the world, and assayed almost exclusively out of Sheffield (although other works could be found in other British cities). In 1963, Walker & Hall combined with Elkington & Co and Mappin & Webb to create British Silverware Ltd. FREE AUSTRALIAN POSTAGE AND 30 DAY RETURNPOLICY!
