Two perfectly proportioned handles sit either side, and stands on one circular foot.

Very clear hallmarks are visible on the back for the Sheffield Assay office with a date mark for 1896 and Lion Passant indicating the finest sterling silver. The silver maker's mark is also clearly visible for Charles Favell & Co.
