Antique Silver at Regent Antiques – Hester Bateman, Paul Storr and More

We are currently offering a wide choice of pieces for the lover and collector of Antique Silver. Here is a roundup of some of the many fine items we have available.

Firstly there is this Antique Sterling Silver Cherubs Hand Mirror which dates from 1904 and would make a lovely addition to any dressing table.

Antique Sterling Silver Cherubs Hand Mirror 1904

This is a lovely English antique silver hand mirror with hallmarks for Birmingham 1904 and unclear marks for the silversmith. The embossed decoration with cherubs is very fine and detailed making this a very desirable piece which we have on sale for just £175.

From the dressing table to the dining table we now feature a lovely Antique English Silver Condiment Cruet Paul Storr dating from 1797.

This rare complete set is in superb condition and features eight exquisite cut glass bottles for oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, mustard, etc.. The oil and vinegar bottles have delightful silver handles and mounts, and the silver mount on each bottle has a full set of hallmarks.

All silver parts bear the same date and are by the same maker. Paul Storr will be well known to any collector of English Silver and this is a particularly fine example that is sure to attract a lot of attention at the very reasonable asking price of £6750.

Still sticking with celebrated English Silversmiths, it would be a shame not to mention another much sought after maker, the female silversmith Hester Bateman. This is an Antique Hester Bateman Silver Basket made in London in 1780.

Hester Bateman was one of our most celebrated and admired silversmiths, not just for her work in making fine quality silverware but also for her considerable achievement in being successful as a woman in what was then very much a man’s trade.

We are offering this Hester Bateman Antique Silver Basket for  £3050 making it an item of interest for many collectors of English silver.

Finally, and still sticking with tableware and cutlery, we are offering this Antique Sterling Silver Boxed Dessert Cutlery Set dating from 1926.

Antique Henry Atkin Sterling Silver Boxed Dessert Cutlery Set 1926

Made in Sheffield by celebrated silversmith Henry Atkin this is a complete set that appears to have had very little use if its superb condition is anything to go by. An investment of £525 is all that is required in order to become the owner of this lovely set.
