Silver Photograph Frame dated 1916

30 May 2009

Comments Off

A silver photograph frame measuring 19cm x 13.5cm dated Birmingham 1916 and made by Henry Matthews. The frame is in reasonable condition, but it does have some of the internal edging missing from the corners, also a bit of creasing of the silver.
The bottom left hand corner has some creasing just below the hallmarks, could be repaired. The plain surround before the scrolled edge is thin and at the top has come away from the scrolled edge.
The frame is complete and with a bit of attention from someone who knows how to restore silver objects this could easily be greatly improved.

Silver Sugar Sifter nicely decorated probably victorian

24 May 2009

Comments Off

This very nice silver sugar sifter, is finely designed with foliage along the handle , the bowl has a rippled effect on the edge, and the sugar holes are various shapes spanning out from the centre. The spoon measures 13cm long and the bowl is 4.3cm in diameter, it weighs 15 garms. I cannot say who the makers are or the date, it’s pretty definately silver but as you can see from the picture the marks have been eroded away.
