A very fine George III silver tea caddy made in London in 1792 by Robert Hennell.
The tea caddy is of oval form and is surmounted by a beautiful pineapple finial (symbol of hospitality in 18th century ).
The caddy has a lock and working key and is finely hand ‘ bright cut engraved’. The caddy bears the original owners crest to the front (A Leopards head) and to the reverse his full coat of arms ( perhaps the Earl of Macclesfield or part of his extended family)
The caddy is in excellent condition and made by one of the late eighteenth century’s most famous makers.
