George V Hallmarked Silver and Glass Sugar Shaker

1900 - 1920
For Sale by TJR Trading
Description

This is a George V hallmarked sterling silver and glass sugar shaker. It was assayed in London in 1917 and made by M Chapman, Son & Co Ltd (Middleton Chapman). The rounded domed lid is pierced with stars, and the rim of the base is also mounted with a silver collar. The glass body was hand blown and engraved with foliate designs.

I have tried to show the detail in the glass engraving with different lighting techniques in the photographs.

There are a number of dents around the sides of the lid and it has buckled slightly under pressure around the edge. The lid still fits snugly on the collar. Other than that it has mild wear commensurate with age.

The lid weighs 11g / 0.37 oz t.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A sugar caster or shaker is a dining vessel designed with a perforated top to sprinkle granulated or cast sugar onto food during meals. Popularised in Western Europe during the seventeenth through early twentieth centuries, these items formed a standard component of formal table service.

George V period sugar casters commonly combine sterling silver mounts with clear, hand-cut, or etched lead crystal glass bodies. The silver top is fitted with small perforations to allow even dispersal of fine sugar.

Authentic British pieces feature official hallmarks stamped into the silver cap, indicating the silver purity, assay office, makers mark, and date letter. Additionally, period glass bodies usually exhibit hand-cut wheel decoration and slight variations characteristic of historic manufacturing.

An antique sugar shaker can be positioned on a sideboard top, curated beverage tray, or open dining room shelving alongside period glass and silver accessories to introduce historical character to contemporary spaces.

Wash the glass reservoir gently using warm water and mild liquid soap, avoiding complete immersion of the silver collar if glued. Polish the silver cap using a soft cotton cloth and specialized silver polish, ensuring non-abrasive care.
