Rural Scene Silver Tea Caddy London 1901 (import Mark)

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

An exquisite, solid silver Tea Caddy, of lovely proportions. Oval design with wonderful rural scenes embossed, depicting village life, including cottages, church and village folk! It has a neat beaded edge to both the top and bottom edges. A nice circular lid pulls of for filling the Caddy. Very clear hallmarks are visible for London 1901 and the letter ''F'' indicating import (''F'' indicates the item was made between 1867 and 1904, therefore the Caddy could be older than the mark). These can be clearly seen on the side of the Caddy and on the lid and also on the base underneath.
 
The silver importers marks are also very clear for: Maurice Freeman.
 
 
 
Condition: This Caddy is in great antique condition. There are a few minor dents around the shoulders commensurate with age that we mention for accuracy.
