Chester 1900 very unusual rare solid silver 10 piece travelling tea service plus original solid oak travel case. |
| Chester 1900 Victorian very unusual English hallmarked solid silver 10 piece travelling tea service of smaller proportions, in the original fitted solid oak velvet and satin lined case. The oak box top would have doubled as a tea table when in transit! So, everything one would need for tea was to hand, and you or a servant would prepare the tea on route.
The set, made by Stokes and Ireland, comprises an ebony handled teapot with ebony finial and hinged lid, a sugar bowl and tongs (Chester 1897), and a milk jug with feathered thumb piece. All three main pieces have a classic style with scalloped edges and stand on tripod cabriole legs. The service also includes six solid silver spoons with ebony bean terminals hallmarked Birmingham 1931.
In Victorian times people of means always travelled with their silver tea services. The services were usually protected by sturdy wood cases. Few have survived.
This is an excellent quality set with a very heavy gauge of silver, and having a good weight of 600 grams.
Size of silver-Teapot 8 inches wide handle to spout, 5.5 inches high, and 4.5 inches diameter. Jug 3.5 inches high, by 3.25 inches wide, by 3 inches diameter. Sugar is 3.75 inches diameter by 2 inches high.
Size of case-12.75 inches wide, by 11.25 inches deep, by 6 inches high.
Chester silver, whose assay office closed nearly 50 years ago, is very collectable in its own right.
A very lovely set, which can be enjoyed and used, and kept protected and tarnish free in its case.
It would make a very special gift.
In very good condition.
