Sterling Silver Canteen of Cutlery for Six Persons - Antique Victorian (1891)

£3,950.00

An exceptional, fine and impressive antique Victorian English sterling silver King's pattern flatware service for six persons; an addition to our canteen of cutlery collection

SKU C8594


The pieces of this fine, antique Victorian straight* sterling silver cutlery set for six persons have been crafted in King's pattern.


The reverse of each silver spoon and fork features a union shell and diamond heel in addition to convex shell ornamentation to the terminal.


This 36 piece Kings pattern cutlery set consists of:

6 Table knives
6 Table forks
6 Table spoons
6 Dessert knives
6 Dessert forks
6 Dessert spoons

The components of this antique service have been crafted by the London silversmith George Maudsley Jackson of Josiah Williams & Co in 1891; the components will have been crafted in the same year but due to the hallmarking system the items are struck with the date letters P and Q.


This flatware service features sterling silver handled replacement knives* crafted by Mappin & Webb Ltd in Sheffield, 1940.


This impressive Kings pattern cutlery is supplied in felt cutlery rolls; which not only protect the items in storage but significantly reduces tarnishing.


* "Straight" means all the pieces are made by the same maker in the same year.

** Predominately all antique silver canteens have replacement knives as the originals have not stood the test of time.


Maker: Josiah Williams & Co (George Maudsley Jackson)

Date: 1891

This antique cutlery set is an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition.

The Kings pattern cutlery ornamentation is very sharp.

Full hallmarks struck to the reverse of each piece are all very clear; the hallmarks are struck deeply due to the exceptional gauge of silver.


Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this fine and impressive Victorian canteen.
