VINTAGE SILVER PLATED PAIR OF CRUET STANDS AND THREE SALT/PEPPER SHAKERS 

ELKINGTON & CO AND WALKER & HALL FOR BIBBY LINE 1948

Offered is a vintage lot of a pair of silver plated cruet stands and three silver plated salt/pepper shakers. 

The pair of cruet stands is by Elkington & Co, a famous silver manufacturer from Birmingham, England. 

The two salt/pepper shakers are by Walker & Hall, a well-known silver manufacturer originally from Sheffield, 

England and the third salt/pepper shaker is by Elkington & Co. They are all made for Bibby Line. Bibby Line 

is a British shipping line founded in 1807 by the first John Bibby (1775–1840). It has operated in most areas 

of shipping throughout its 200-year history, and claims to be the oldest independently owned deep sea shipping 

line in the world. 

The pair of cruet stands weigh together 572 grams (20.2 oz.) and each measures 22 cm (8.7 in.) tall X 13.5 cm 

(5.3 in.) wide X 6 cm (2.4 in.) deep. They are both marked at the bottom with the Elkington & Co logo and the 

capital letter “M” which was used in 1948 (pictured). The three salt/pepper shakers weigh together 372 grams 

(13.1 oz.) and each measures 7 cm (2.8 in.) tall X 5 cm (2.0 in.) wide at the base. Two are marked at the bottom 

with the Walker & Hall logo and the capital letters “U” and “T” (pictured). Capital letters A-Z were used by Walker 

& Hall c. 1930 - c. 1950. The third salt/pepper shaker is marked with the letter “D”, which was used by Elkington 

& Co in 1915, with the rest of the Elkington & Co logo most likely faded (pictured). They all bear the Bibby Line

 logo (pictured). They are in good used condition with hairline scratches and discoloration and tarnish spots 

consistent with their age (pictured). 

Shipping is USD 40 worldwide and USD 10 for Greece by ELTA Hellenic Post registered mail. I will combine 

shipping for all items listed.

Bibby Line 

The Bibby Line was founded in 1807 by the first John Bibby (1775–1840). It has operated in most areas of shipping throughout 

its 200-year history, and claims to be the oldest independently owned deep sea shipping line in the world. Along with other British 

ship owners, it endured hard economic conditions in the 1970s and 1980s, but survived through diversification into floating 

accommodation. 

The group diversified in the 1980s into separate divisions, including Bibby Financial Services which was formed in 1982. 

The parent company is now called Bibby Line Group - a £1billion global business, operating in 16 countries, employing 

4,000 people in sectors including retail, financial services, distribution, shipping, marine and construction equipment hire.
