To include over 120 lots of silver and objects of vertu. Amongst the objects of vertu are three lots of fob seals with 19 seals between them. They offer a representation of the diversity of designs used in the 19th century, including one decorated with a hare coursing scene. Another highlight of this section is a 9ct gold Watermans pen. Flatware features strongly amongst the sale with early items including two marrow-scoops, dating to 1722 and 1723 as well as a rare pair of Onslow pattern basting spoons and various useful serving items including soup-ladles and meat-skewers. Amongst many useful lots of domestic silver are items that will appeal to the shooting set such as a lot containing two silver pheasants, a silver woodcock and two game bird engraved napkin-rings. Other useful domestic silver includes salvers as well as tea and coffee-wares. The sale also features an interesting offering of 18th and 19 century Newcastle silver such as a two-handled cup by John Langlands and John Goodrick, probably dating to 1755 and silver from further afield such as two Ottoman silver and coral bangles.
