Vintage Sterling Silver Coffee / Tea Set And Tray - John Rose - Birmingham 1951
Quite the exquisite little novelty Coffee and Tea set, perfect for your cabinet of curiosities!
This charming set was crafted in Birmingham and is fully hallmarked with the Lion passant for Sterling silver, makers mark for (we believe) John Rose of Hockley Street Birmingham, and date letter stamped for assay/manufacture in 1951 - making this collectible set 75 years old, a quarter of a century!
Consisting of a lidded Coffee pot (lids are also hallmarked), A Tea pot and the accompanying sugar bowl, all of which also bear full hallmarks to each base.
The associated tray measures a lovely 14.5cm x 4cm and is also fully hallmarked.
The ribbed fluting is lovely and for the eagle eyed … did you spot the sweet little heart shape where the fluting meets?!
Snap this treasure up fast because we’ve fallen head over heels for it!
