Salt Pot - Circular - London 1714 by William Looker - 6.7cm diameter base; 42g - TC/6553

Sorry, this item is out of stock.

This is a scarce design for a George I period silver salt pot design that is far less commonly found than the traditional octagonal trencher.

This circular salt cellar has a deep well and bears London hallmarks for Britannia standard silver (purer than Sterling) to the underside. The "Lo" maker's mark for William Looker has two pellets above denoting "eyes" as a rebus for the silversmith's name. 

This salt pot remains in fine condition.
