Antique English pewter lidded tankard, 1 quart Old English Wine Standard.
Circa 1780.
A fine tankard with double dome lid, bulbous drum with fillet on a large flared foot.
Double scroll handle with fishtail terminal.
Open chair back thumb piece.
The hinge to the lid looks to be original with no repair.
There are rubbed makers marks to the left of the handle.
I have measured the capacity and it is about 33 fl oz; so 1 quart to the Old English Wine Standard.
The tankard has a polished silver grey finish, there is possibly a repair to the handle terminal (see detailed images).
Weight: 890g
Height to top of dome lid: 19cm (7.5in).
