Georgian Silver Cream Jug, London 1781 By Charles Hougham.Njl10306

Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: Woodbridge Antiques

This is a magnificent Georgian solid silver cream jug with very finely embossed rural scenes. Standing on a pedestal foot it bears hallmarks for London 1781 and the maker''s mark for Charles Hougham. The embossing work is really very fine and is worth describing: on one side a house sits between stylized trees with a cow lying in the foreground; on the other side a pheasant flies over a large plant and past a tree while a dog watches from below in front of a hut or small house. There is a cartouch under the spout which is engraved with the initials ''ILI''.
