George V Silver Mustard Pot, T. Atkins, B'ham 1916
Here we have a fine quality George V Sterling Silver Mustard Pot with its original Blue Glass Liner. The mustard pot is drum shaped with a domed lid and is decorated with Gothic style bands above and below a blank cartouche.
The mustard pot was made in Birmingham by silversmith Thomas Edward Atkins and dates to 1916. Thomas Edward Atkins registered his mark at the Birmingham Assay Office in 1908 and operated from premises in St Paul’s Square, on the edge of Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. He primarily made tableware and tea services although his mark is occasionally seen on other pieces. Atkins also registered his mark with the assay offices in Chester and London but seems to have made very little use of them. He ceased trading around 1920.
Condition is very good with no dings or dents in the silver and just the superficial surface wear that you would expect after over 105 years of good service. There a few little nibbles to the top rim of the glass liner but it remains perfectly functional. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
The mustard pot is of a good size measuring 7.2cm / 2.8ins from rim to handle, 5.5cm / 2.2ins in diameter and standing 6.7cm / 2.6ins high. Without the glass liner it weighs in at a substantial 86.5g / 3oz of solid Sterling Silver and all together it weighs 156.2g / 5.5oz.
The hallmarks, on the side of the body, are a little rubbed but still clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the anchor assay mark for Birmingham, the date letter r for 1916 and the distinctive T E A in a trefoil shape makers' mark for Thomas Edward Atkins.
Shipping in the UK is £11 by Royal Mail Special Delivery, which includes cover for the value of the mustard pot.
Overseas customers, please ask us about shipping costs to your country before making a purchase.
