Description

An Edwardian silver rim and crystal match striker with clear hallmarks for Birmingham 1904 and makers mark for Levi & Salaman. This exceptional rare striker has a silver rim with a central reeded band which is the striker itself. The crystal bowl has been cleverly hand blown to include a symmetrical band of tiny bubbles, a technical and aesthetic achievement, adding a decorative and sparkly effect. The well is deep. The base is convex, with a cut edge so the striker stands flat. All in immaculate condition including the inner rim which has no damage. This item is smart and little used for it age.

An Edwardian silver match striker is a tabletop accessory produced during the reign of King Edward VII (1901-1910), designed to safely house matches and provide a textured striking surface on its collar for ignition.

These pieces typically combine heavy-walled blown glass, often featuring controlled air bubbles or cut designs, with hallmarked sterling silver mounts and collars.

Authentic pieces feature clear British hallmarks stamped into the silver collar, indicating the assay office (such as Birmingham or London), date letter, and sterling standard, alongside period-appropriate manufacturing techniques like hand-cut striking surfaces.

This piece can be styled as a sophisticated decorative object on a coffee table, bookcase shelf, or desk, adding historical texture and metallic sheen to contemporary schemes.

Preserve the item by dusting the glass gently with a microfibre cloth and cleaning the silver mount sparingly with a specialised non-abrasive silver polish, taking care to avoid getting polish on the glass or striking surface.
