This George III silver wine funnel originates from the Georgian period, hallmarked in London in 1804 by maker Solomon Hougham. Constructed from sterling silver with a reflective silver finish, the two-part object comprises a bowl and a sieve. The exterior displays a curved spout, a side clip positioned near the base rim, and a reeded rim running around the lower edge. Clear hallmarks appear on the outer bowl alongside a small numeral stamped near the base. The proportions measure 14 cm high, 8 cm wide, and 8 cm deep. Ideal for a gentleman's library or dining room, the piece suits display upon a sideboard top or practical use during wine decanting.

FAQs

During the Georgian era, wine funnels were essential dining accessories used to strain sediment and lees from aged port and claret as the wine was poured into a decanter.

Traditional silver wine funnels were crafted from sterling silver, comprising a bowl with an inner pierced filter ring connected to a curved, tapered spout designed to direct liquid against the inner wall of a decanter.

Authentic pieces bear official British hallmarks including the lion passant for sterling silver, a town mark such as Londons leopard head, a makers mark, and a date letter corresponding to the George III period.

A silver wine funnel can be displayed alongside glass decanters on a dining room sideboard, integrated into a curated drinks tray setup, or showcased inside a glass cabinet.

Silver funnels should be cleaned gently using a soft cloth and a specialised non-abrasive silver polish, followed by rinsing in warm water and thorough drying to prevent tarnish.
