DESCRIPTION

Antique 20th Century Edwardian Rococo Style Solid Silver ornamental cup and cover, exceptionally large and decorative, heavy gauge, the body embossed with scrolls, leaves and flowers, cast twin leaf-capped double-scroll handles. The cover in the same style terminates with a large wrythen finial. The front is engraved with a memorial inscription dated 1906.

Such large vases were the most fashionable interior design accessory of the mid-late 18th Century; the silver cup and cover in form of vase was at the top end of the market for such items. This is a Edwardian copy of the rare Rococo piece, and due to the particularly large size it can be used as a wine or champagne cooler. Each part is fully Hallmarked English silver (925 Standard), London, year 1902 (g), Maker's mark W&S (West & Son).
