Description
For sale is an English silver tankard made in the 18th century by John Langlands II of Newcastle.The Langlands family were the largest manufacturers of silver and silver plate in Newcastle and they manufactured silver for over 60 years. John Langland II took over the business following his fathers death in 1795but died himself in 1804. However his widow Dorothy Langland maintained a flourishing business right up to 1814.
This particular tankard is beautiful. It carries the hallmarks for Newcastle 1798-9 and the makers mark for John Langland II. It is a presentation tankard, and was further engraved with a lovely ornate pattern in approximately 1867. Along with this pattern there is an inscription for a Mr Matthew Bernard, who apparently served as Treasurer of the Sir Colin Campbell Lodge of the Odd Fellows Friendly Society for 9 years. It seems that the lodge met at the Crown Inn, Rochdale Road, Bury, Lancashire, and this English pub is still, after all this time, serving beer.
The tankard is in a lovely antique condition, however there are one or two tiny indentations in the body and the hallmarks and makers mark on the main body are rubbed but legible
The Tankard weighs just over 300g and is 5 inches high.
