An exceptional, fine and impressive pair of vintage Elizabeth II English sterling silver napkin rings with hunting interest - boxed; part of our dining silverware collection

These exceptional vintage English sterling silver napkin rings have an oval form.

Each napkin ring is individually embellished with an impressive engraved design depicting a pheasant amongst grassy terrain and a fish jumping out of water.

These exceptional vintage napkin rings are fitted to the hinged leatherette presentation box, with a velvet and satin lined interior.

The interior of the cover bears the retailer's mark 'Goldsmiths & Diamond merchants, G. Chambers & Sons, Head St, Colchester'.

These boxed sterling silver napkin rings were crafted by the Birmingham silversmiths J B Chatterley & Sons Ltd; the pieces will have been crafted in fewer year but due to the hallmarking system one is struck with the date letter 'S' (1967) and the other bears 'U' (1969).
