A magnificent Four piece George IV Antique Silver Tea and Coffee Service. The Service is comprised of a Coffee Pot, Teapot, a twin handled sugar bowl and milk jug.
Each piece is of heavy gauge, of baluster form and stands on four classical mask and scroll feet. All the pieces are hand chased with flowers and foliage in the rococo style but have a plain cartouche on one side.The superb spouts are designed in the form of a mythical beast- this is possibly one of the finest rococo sets we have seen.
On the other side each piece is embossed with a scene appropriate to which ever vessel it is , for example the milk jug has a stylised cow and the sugar bowl has a scene depicting sugar cane. The Coffee and Teapot both have hinged lids with a flower finial.
Joseph Craddock & William Ker Reid, London 1820.
