Prettily Engraved Silver Egg Cruet for Four, 1868

Silver egg cruets are relatively scarce and very rarely found to be as attractive as this one... plus a major bonus is the presence of all the original components!

This Victorian egg set comprises a stand with carrying handle, four egg cups and four egg spoons with each of them bearing matching hallmarks - in fact including butterfly nuts, pegs etc, there are a total of nineteen components with amazingly each one being stamped with an appropriate hallmark!

The Aesthetic style engraving is truly beautiful with a lovely depiction of floral tendrils amongst pierced trellis work. The set was made by Martin & Hall of Sheffield and is in superb condition.
