Description

A really outstanding silver Tea Caddy with matching silver Caddy Spoon. The Caddy is a stunning baluster style shape and is a plain polished silver. It stands on one neat circular foot the only decoration being a wonderful and unusual decorated band around the top. The neat circular lid fits in perfectly and has a neat wooded handle to enable removal of the lid. On one side are the very clear hallmarks for the Birmingham Assay Office with a date mark for 1936 and Lion Passant indicating sterling silver. There is also a maker's mark: Fenton Russell & Co.

The caddy spoon has the same matching pattern as the caddy, which is featured on the top of the spoon terminal, with the same hallmarks and maker's marks on the back.

An exceptional set, the glorious shape of the caddy along with the decorative pattern design is truly stunning. Both of the items are in super antique condition. (Marks showing in the images are reflections as the plain polished silver is difficult to photograph).
