Lot #232: Mixed Georgian & Early Victorian English Silver Tea & Coffee Service (5 Pieces)

This lot comprises a coordinated English tea and coffee service consisting of five pieces, sharing a consistent fluted design and black wooden handles, but not all of the same metal or date, as confirmed by hallmarks and inventory list in photos. Sterling Silver (3 Pieces): The three larger vessels are solid sterling silver, each fully hallmarked and dating to the Georgian period: • Teapot • Coffee pot • Hot water jug Hallmarks observed include: • Lion passant (sterling silver standard) • Birmingham assay office • Maker’s mark “T.B.” • Stamped “Made in England” These pieces feature fluted bodies with pedestal bases and black wooden handles and finials, typical of early 19th-century English silver hollowware. Silver Plate (2 Pieces): The two smaller matching front pieces: • Cream jug • Sugar bowl These share the same fluted design and form but are silver plated, with plating wear visible to the interiors, consistent with age and use. Notes: • This is a mixed-metal lot (sterling silver and silver plate). • All pieces visually match in style and were clearly intended as a service, despite differing materials and dates. • Please review all photos, including hallmarks, an inventory sheet in photos.
