Cut Glass Dressing Table Pot with Silver Lid, 1915
This is an elegant George V Cut Glass Dressing Table Pot with a Sterling Silver Lid. The glass pot is sarcophagus shaped with hobnail cut decoration all around the body and star cut decoration on the underside of the base. The silver lid is plain and has no initials or personalisation of any kind.
The dressing table pot was made in Birmingham by the Boots Pure Drug Company and dates to 1915. Founded in Nottingham by John Boot in 1849, Boots The Chemist is now one of the UK's largest and most successful retailers. Between around 1900 and 1925, Boots produced and stocked a wide range of good quality household & personal silverware, primarily, though not exclusively, aimed at female customers. These attractive items have now become popular with collectors.
Condition is good, with no chips or cracks in the glass. The silver lid has a few tiny dings in it and a small split on one corner. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
The pot is 12cm / 4.7ins long by 5.2cm / 2ins wide and stands 2.8cm / 1.1ins high. The lid by itself weighs in at 12.4g / 0.44oz of solid Sterling Silver and all in it weighs 218.7g / 7.7oz.
The hallmarks, on the edge of the silver lid, are nice and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the anchor assay mark for Birmingham, the date letter q for 1915 and the B P D C in a shield makers' mark for the Boots Pure Drug Company.
Shipping in the UK is £6 by Royal Mail Tracked 24.
Overseas customers, please ask us about shipping costs to your country before making a purchase.
