A very rare, solid silver, Christening Mug. In baluster form, the mug is a simply plain polished silver with no embossing or engraving, however, the handle to one side is extremely unusual and represents a crescent moon with a ''man in the moon'' face featured. One side of the mug bears the hallmarks for the Birmingham Assay Office with a date mark of 1929 and maker''s marks for Horton & Allday (these marks are slightly rubbed, however, are still distinguishable). There is also a reg number on the moon handle: 735492.
A superb and unusual mug in great antique condition.
Birmingham 1929 by Horton & Allday.
