Sterling Silver Commemorative Presentation Table Ornaments - Vintage (1988)

These exceptional vintage cast sterling silver commemorative presentation table ornaments have a figural form to a circular base.

The body of each trophy has been realistically modelled in the form of a medical soldier carrying an injured fellow on his back.

The male figures are ornamented with details reproducing the military attire and anatomical features.

Each ornament is further embellished with a terrain texture in junction with the plinth base.

The silver trophies are fitted to cylindrical painted, ebonised wood bases ornamented with hallmarked plaques.

The plaque to one trophy is blank and the other bears the contemporary engraved inscription 'Officers Mess, British Military Hospital, Berlin, 1990'.

The terrain textured sterling silver base of each table ornament bears the retailer's mark 'Garrard & Co Ltd, 112 Regent Street, London', in addition to the full hallmarks of the renowned silversmiths Garrard & Co Ltd.

Each piece of vintage silverware is fitted with a velvet lining to the underside.
