Description

This is a lovely collector's piece: A solid sterling silver pin cushion, shaped as an elephant carrying a howdah.

It is hallmarked on the side for Birmingham. The date letter is partially obscured by the howdah stand, but is it possibly for 1909. The maker's mark is for Adie & Lovekin Ltd.

There are a number of small bumps on the body of the elephant. The fabric of the cushion looks to be original, and consequently there is a small amount of discolouring from years of silver polish. The howdah is firmly attached and the elephant stands squarely. The detail to the eyes and truck is sharp.

Dimensions:

Height: 7.5cm

Length: 6.5cm

Depth: 2.5cm.

Post and packaging are free within the UK via Royal Mail special delivery. Overseas buyers please e-mail for postage costs. Thank you.

Please note: payment by credit or debit card can be made by pressing the ‘pay now’ button on the item page - A PayPal account is not needed.

Date of Manufacture

The Silver Cabinet has dated this piece to the Edwardian era.
