Vintage Derby Quad Silver-plated Coffee Pot Victorian Chic Luxury Old Money

Photos are part of description.  Lovely patina but no scratches from polishing.   Just reducing the size of my collections in hopes of retiring one day.

Derby Silver Company was founded in 1872 and began operations on Shelton’s Canal Street one year later. The company soon outgrew its quarters and in 1877 constructed a larger building, which still stands on Bridge Street, Shelton, near the Housatonic River, overlooking Derby. A number of additions were completed in subsequent years. The original Canal Street building was razed when the railroad was built through Shelton in 1888.

The company made toilet articles, mirrors, combs, clocks, brushes, tableware and flatware, tea sets, children’s cups, loving cups (trophies), candlesticks, fruit baskets, dishes, basically anything which was plated by or made of silver. Special orders were constantly commissioned as well. The factory manufactured items for the Sperry and Hutchinson trading stamp stores. The Company was noted for its large line of silver-plated toilet ware and an economical line of plated hollowware sold under the popular trademark of the Victor Silver Plate.

The Derby Silver Company mark, ca. 1875 is pictured.

And remember too, vintage fine silver,  will always hold or increase in value- just like gold and firearms.

Examine the photos closely and send me a reasonable offer.  Blessings!
