46 Piece Sandringham Pattern Silver Canteen, Sheffield 1936-39
The Service
We are pleased to be offering an excellent 6 place settings canteen of silver in the popular Art Deco pattern Sandringham. The service provides for seven pieces per 6 place settings with 2 serving spoons and 2 sauce ladles.
The majority of pieces were made in Sheffield by Emile Viner between 1936 and 1939, however the knives date from the late fifties/early sixties. Viners were one of the UK’s major producers of silver cutlery during the 20th century and were particularly admired for some of their innovative designs – Sandringham was the most popular.
Each piece benefits from having no personalised engravings.
Sandringham Pattern
Sandringham Pattern was designed by Viners in the early 1930's and its streamlined form was inspired by the Art Deco movement. It was Viners most successful cutlery pattern and production continued for several decades. Sandringham is the most prevalent and popular of all English Art Deco flatware patterns.
