It was listed by The Silver Cabinet. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
The Silver Cabinet has dated this piece to the Georgian era.
Female silversmiths from this era are highly collectable and this jug features several quirky Rococo decorations - a large nesting bird, a cottage and a rabbit amongst the flora. There is a large empty cartouche beneath the wide pourer.
It is in a classic baluster form with ogee rim and ear handle and stands on three shell and C scroll trefid feet.
Charming!
