Condition

This antique cream jug is a very good gauge of silver, very good quality and in excellent condition, in keeping with age.

There is natural fire marks to the surface of the cream jug, as to be expected with such a piece.

Full hallmarks struck to the rim of the base are all very clear.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of this example of Georgian silverware.
