DESCRIPTION | Superb pair of high quality antique English Georgian solid sterling silver tub salts with initial and crest engraving and lusciously gilded interiors. Classical Georgian form in exceptional condition and complete with original assayer's scrape beneath. I usually advocate using your silver but please do not use these, they are just too beautiful to blemish. |
