Victorian Silver Cream Jug, J.M. Banks, 1893 Victorian  Silver Cream Jug %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
This is a very decorative late Victorian Sterling Silver Cream Jug. The jug has a broadly rectangular shape with rounded corners and sits on four bun feet. The body is decorated with embossed floral swags and has a gadrooned upper rim. The handle is engraved with a leaf design and has a shell thumb rest. There are no initials or personalisation of any kind.

The cream jug is made in Birmingham by silversmith John Millward Banks and dates to 1893. John Millward Banks established his business in Birmingham in 1863 and produced a wide range of silverware for domestic and personal use of consistently high quality, much of it sold through his London showroom. He died in 1911 and the business was carried on by his son into the late 1920s.

Condition is very good, with just a couple of flat spots on the bun feet which don't prevent the jug from sitting securely on a flat surface, plus the superficial surface wear that has to be expected after 130 years of good service. Please make sure to view all the photographs.

The cream jug is 10cm / 3.9ins from lip to handle, 6.3cm / 2.5ins across and stands 7.2cm / 2.8ins high. It weighs in at a substantial 91.5g / 3.2oz of solid Sterling Silver.

The hallmarks, on the upper side of the body, are nice and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the anchor assay mark for Birmingham, the Gothic date letter t for 1893 and the J.M.B makers' mark for John Millward Banks.

Shipping in the UK is £11 by Royal Mail Special Delivery, which includes cover for the value of the cream jug.
