| Antique Silver Caster. |
Early Victorian silver caster; of octagonal Ashburnham pattern, this super quality caster is unusual for two reasons in particular. Firstly, casters were plentiful in Georgian times and very popular from the late Victorian period onwards; there were not too many made in this early Victorian period. Also, the Ashburnham pattern (originally commissioned by the Earl of Ashburnham in 1747,) was only attempted by the very best silversmiths (Sprimont, Storr, Hunt & Roskell, Hunt and Mortimer) due to it's demanding nature.
This piece is in fine condition and would be a great addition to any collection.

| Set Of Four Silver Salt Cellars. |
Wonderful quality set of four silver salt cellars; round cauldron shape with cast knurlled gadroon borders, each on three cast lion-mask and pad feet, with blue glass liners. The last time we saw four salt cellars of this quality they were made by the master silversmith Paul Storr. The gauge of metal used is extremely thick and each salt feels the weight of a cricket ball! James Dixon have been making fine silver since 1806 and still have the patterns and catalogues from this period. If they were Georgian, these would be museum pieces.
