Antique Silver Tankards & Mugs by Regent Antiques

Some things just never go out of fashion. They remain popular even when other collectable objects, furniture, textiles and decorative items rise and fall in popularity.

Timeless, beautiful, antique silver tankards and mugs are always somewhere to be seen and play an important part in many fine collections of antique silver.

Here at Regent Antiques, we pride ourselves in our selection of antique silver items and we are offering a very fine range of tankards and mugs, as well as many other antique silver items.
One very fine example is this Antique William & Mary English Silver Tankard which is currently on offer at £6,250. Despite its age, having been made in 1697, this tankard is in remarkably good condition and shows no signs of damage or of ever having been repaired.

This striking antique silver William & Mary lidded tankard has hallmarks showing it having been made in London by Charles Overing, whose mark it also carries.

Another lovely piece, almost as old as the previous one but every bit as good to look at is this wonderful large antique English George III sterling silver tankard with spout, which bears hallmarks for London 1774 and the makers mark of John Allen.

We turn to well known and highly sought after English silversmith Hester Bateman for our next selection.

This is a fine example of an antique English sterling silver mug by the celebrated female silversmith who was active in London during the latter half of the 1700s.
A superb example of the kind of quality that she is famous for, this piece bears the hallmarks for London 1783 and the maker’s mark of Hester Bateman.
