Horn, Sterling Silver and Glass Campaign Condiment Set - Antique Edwardian

Description

This exceptional antique sterling silver condiment set consists of four salts and a mustard pot.

Each vessel of this fine Edwardian silver condiment set has a circular tapering horn body and retains the original plain hallmarked sterling silver mounts.

The upper rims of four components are embellished with the contemporary engraved descriptive word ‘Salt’ and the remaining piece displays ‘Mustard’.

The containers are fitted with hinged hallmarked covers embellished with the contemporary bright cut engraved crests of stags head erased and a greyhound sejant, collared and leashed.

The underside of each salt is fitted with the original glass base embellished with a star cut motif; the glass base to the mustard is plain and unembellished.

The lower rim of each piece bears the retailer’s mark ‘Thornhill Ld Bond St London’.

This impressive condiment set is fitted to the original oak wood presentation box with velvet lined interior and brass fittings, including a carrying handle to the cover.

The box has the capacity to accommodate the condiment spoons; unfortunately over a period of time these components have been separated from the set.
