This Georgian solid silver tankard originates from 18th-century London and displays traditional sterling silver construction with a polished finish. The design incorporates a baluster body, a double scroll handle with leaf detailing at the top terminal, and a multi-stepped moulded base, alongside struck hallmarks near the rim. Measuring 9.8 cm in height and 7 cm in diameter, this silver mug weighs 238.9 g. Suitable for display on a sideboard top or within a gentleman's library collection, the vessel functions as both a decorative period piece and a usable drinking vessel. The interior shows a hand-hammered texture resulting from traditional smithing techniques, while the exterior remains smooth and reflective throughout.

FAQs

Georgian silver tankards from the 18th century typically feature baluster or straight-sided shapes, cast scroll handles, and struck hallmarks near the rim or base.

These vessels were raised by hand from sterling silver and frequently feature cast scroll handles silver-soldered to a seam-raised baluster body with a turned or moulded pedestal foot.

Authenticity is determined by official assay office marks, including the makers mark, leopards head for London, lion passant for sterling purity, and a specific date letter.

Antique silver tankards can be displayed on a sideboard, bar cart, or desk as decorative accents, vessel holders, or functional desk accessories.

Clean gently with a soft cloth and specialised silver polish, avoiding harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, or abrasive scouring pads that can wear down historic hallmarks.
