Antique Georgian Silver Wine Cooler Cup Regency Design - Paul Storr London 1810
Status:This item has been sold Sold by:Artisan Antiques
We are delighted to have acquired and offer this magnificent Georgian solid sterling silver wine cooler/cup made by Paul Storr, London 1810.
Synonymous with quality, splendor and Royalty; Paul Storr was the most celebrated English silversmith of the early 19th Century receiving commissions from the British Aristocracy and Royalty (more info below). Unsurprisingly, his wares are of the finest quality and his legacy lives on today with many of his works exhibited in museums and in the Royal Collection Trust.
This particular article was made during the Regency period and as such presents some of the finest traits and balance between understated elegance and distinct ornamentations.
The cup is made from a good gauge of silver with thick walls and a heft which offers a reassuring feel in hand and upon display. The top portion features a most wonderful thick shell & gadroon border with a splendid Regency frieze of anthemion motifs underneath.
The midsection presents a plain mi...rror finish with two hand-engraved cartouches, one with a coat of arms and the other side a presentation engraving reading ''A Token of Esteem''. Its base features a large and wide foot supporting the top portion with further gadroon style decoration.
Undoubtedly stylish and splendid as a display piece on a table, but better yet, such fine silverware can also be practically used in the modern-day. Whether it be for chilling and serving wine (fits one large champagne bottle comfortably or two medium ones) or other beverages of your choice, or perhaps as a grand flower vase. A wonderful way to display your passion and appreciation for fine antiques and history and an unmissable conversation starter upon presenting guests.
Full set of English hallmarks are present on the rim of the foot.

Further on Paul Storr (1771-1844)
Paul Storr, England''s most celebrated early 19th-century silversmith was born in London, 1771. He began his career in 1792 and quickly built up a reputation for his fine crafts and by the beginning of the 19th century, he had become one of London''s most renowned silversmiths, producing silverware for King George III and King George IV.
In 1807, Storr worked with Philip Rundell and became a partner in 1811 for the workshops for Rundell, Bridge and Rundell, the finest goldsmiths and retailers of the period. Although he kept his own hallmarks and maintained his own workshop, this partnership further accelerated his rise to prominence and provided more exposure allowing him to display his finest skills.
His works can now be found in the finest art institutions and Royal palaces none less than Windsor Castle, Buckingham Palace, the V&A and the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
