A small gothic revival chalice and pattern.
A John Crane Salt small (travelling) silver gilt chalice and pattern for Thomas Pratt & Sons. The chalice set with red coral and turquoise stones to the stem and garnets to the base. The chalice is marked for London 1873, and the pattern London 1871. Works by John Crane Salt are sufficiently rare that I suspect the pattern and chalice are original to each other, or perhaps the chalice was lost or stolen and replaced soon after purchase.
John Crane Salt’s mark is rare but when seen is often on ecclesiastical pieces for Pratt & Sons – one of the larger ecclesiastic fitters of the time. Most likely he was an independent silversmith working for that firm.
Condition is excellent with just one tiny “ding” to the base.
