This exceptional antique Victorian sterling silver pepper has a cylindrical shaped form realistically modelled in the form of a champagne bottle.

The lower cylindrical portion of the body is embellished with the contemporary bright cut engraved Roman numerals 'XXIX' - 29.

The pepper is fitted with the original hallmarked push fit cover modelled in the form of a foil capped champagne cork embellished with pierced 'pepper' holes subdivided by an integrated wire muselet/wirehood indentation design.

The underside of this impressive sterling silver pepper bears the retailer's mark 'Jones, London & Paris'.

Maker: John Harrison & Co

Date: 1878

Condition

This antique pepper is an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in excellent condition.

There are some natural fire marks to the surface of the pepper, in keeping with age.

Full hallmarks struck to the surface of the body and part hallmarks to the cover are all very clear.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this pepper shaker.
