This George III sterling silver cream jug originates from London 1803 and bears the maker's mark of George Burrows. The silver body displays an engraved horse's head crest, a chased floral scrolling band around the middle, and intricate scrollwork along the rounded base. It stands on a stepped circular pedestal foot with turned mouldings and incorporates a high angular loop handle and a polished pouring spout. The piece measures 9 cm in height, 11 cm in length from the back of the handle to the tip of the spout, and 8.5 cm across the middle, with a weight of 100.9 grams. In a contemporary home, this Georgian table silver works well placed on a sideboard top alongside a traditional tea service or as part of a collection of antique English silver. The reflective silver surface complements classic dining room settings, while the detailed repousse and chased decoration adds historical character to everyday tablescapes or display cabinets.

FAQs

A George III silver cream jug is a small vessel crafted in Great Britain during the reign of King George III, specifically between 1760 and 1820, designed to serve milk or cream at the table.

These items were crafted from sterling silver containing 92.5 percent pure silver, raised by hand-hammering and detailed through chasing, engraving, and casting process for the handles and foot rims.

Authentic pieces feature complete British hallmarks, including the leopards head mark for London, the lion passant indicating sterling purity, a monarchs head duty mark, a date letter, and a registered makers mark.

An antique silver creamer can be styled on a dining sideboard, placed within a display cabinet alongside period glass, or used as a small decorative vessel for floral arrangements.

Clean sterling silver using a soft cotton cloth and specialised, non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding dipping solutions, harsh chemicals, dishwasher cleaning, or excessive moisture.
