Description

An Ornate Antique Victorian Style Silver-Plated Tea Set lavishly adorned with repoussé floral patterns, mythological figures, and striking avian motifs. From the regal eagle finials to the bearded face at the base of the bird-shaped spouts, every detail of this set embodies the drama and elegance of high Victorian decorative arts. This four-piece set showcases:

A Teapot & Coffee Pot: Each with elaborate figural spouts featuring a bird’s head above a bearded face, merging natural and mythic imagery.

A Sugar Bowl: Decorated to match, with twin handles and an eagle-topped lid.

And a Cream Jug: Richly gilded interior for a luxurious contrast and lasting preservation.

* This tea set is more than functional - it’s theatrical. It commands attention with its combination of artistry and symbolism.

Measurements:

Height of Coffee Pot (tallest item): 9 1/2" (approx. 24cm)

Width of Coffee Pot (spout to handle): 10" (approx. 25.5cm)

Width of Tea Pot (spout to handle): 10" (approx. 25.5cm)

Total weight (of 4-piece set): 3200g

In good condition – Bright silver finish with minor age-appropriate wear; no dents or losses. Gilding in the cream jug remains rich and reflective. Hinges, spouts, and handles are sturdy and functional.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

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

Tea sets from this era frequently exhibit revivalist motifs, elaborate repousse work, and intricate figural finials reflecting traditional craftsmanship.

These sets are typically crafted from sterling silver or silver plate over a base metal, utilising techniques such as hand-chasing, embossing, and cast figural detailing.

Authenticity is verified through makers marks, hallmarks indicating purity and assay office, weight, and the natural patina developed over decades of oxidisation.

Display the set on a mirrored tray atop a sideboard or coffee table to introduce metallic texture and historical contrast to modern spaces.

Clean gently with a specialised non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip the authentic antiqued highlights.
