Hukin & Heath produced a lot of silver and silver plate which was retailed by Mappin & Webb. Based in Birmingham, they are best known for their production in the 1879's and 1880's of silver and silver plate under the guidance of the important designer Dr Christopher Dresser. Our Wine Pourer thus has an illustrious pedigree and was made to grace a resplendent dining table to impress guests with its style and ease of use. Bar Code: 10271
