This George IV sterling silver mug dates from the Regency period, specifically 1824, originating from London and bearing the maker's mark for Rebecca Eames and Edward Bernard alongside clear hallmarks including the Regent's head. The small urn-shaped vessel exhibits a bright polished silver exterior with a contrasting gold-gilded interior, standing upon a stepped tapered pedestal foot. Fine horizontal reeded bands encircle the upper body beneath the flared rim, complemented by a prominent cast handle adorned with intricate leaf-scrolled acanthus detail. Measuring 9.5 cm high, 10.5 cm wide and 7.5 cm deep with a quarter-pint capacity, the tankard is suitable for display atop a dining room sideboard or living room cabinet as a classic example of early nineteenth-century British silverware. The compact piece functions well within a traditional domestic setting as a decorative display item, historic cabinet piece, or a traditional celebratory keepsake.

FAQs

George IV period silver, dating from 1820 to 1830, typically features substantial proportions, horizontal reeded banding, leaf-scrolled handles, and interiors finished with gold gilding to prevent corrosion from liquids.

Pieces were hand-raised from sterling silver sheet metal by master silversmiths, fitted with cast handles, and detailed with mercury gilding applied to the interior.

Authentic pieces carry a full set of British hallmarks including the lion passant for sterling purity, the leopards head for the London assay office, the sovereigns profile duty mark, a specific date letter, and a makers mark.

An antique silver mug functions well as a decorative accent on a dining room sideboard, an elegant holder for writing implements on a desk, or a small vessel for floral displays.

Wash gently by hand in warm water using mild detergent and a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive silver polishes on the interior gold layer to preserve the gilding.
