A very good rare George III period silver tea caddy made in London in 1798 by John Emes. The caddy has a central fixed handle and there are two lockable compartments to each side. In the eighteenth century one side would have been used for black tea and the other for green tea. The caddy is delicately hand engraved with marine motifs and to either end is a floral spray one of which contains the original owner’s script initials. It is in excellent condition with both locks working.
