Art Nouveau Silver Sugar Tongs, Mappin & Webb 1915
Here we have an exquisite pair of Art Nouveau Sterling Silver Sugar Tongs. Both arms of the tongs have a pierced design of interwoven flowers and foliage in a typically elegant Art Nouveau style. There are no initials or personalisation of any kind making these ideal as a gift.
The sugar tongs are made in Sheffield by world famous silversmiths Mappin & Webb and date to 1915. With a history going back to Joseph Mappin in 1810, Mappin & Webb remain to this today one of the most important names in English silverware and are a byword for quality.
Condition is extremely good, with no dings or dents and just the bare minimum of superficial surface wear that you would expect after 107 years of use. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
The tongs are 10.2cm / 4ins long and weigh a very respectable 20.7g / 0.73oz of solid Sterling Silver.
The hallmarks on the outside of one bowl are well struck and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the crown assay mark for Sheffield, the Gothic date letter x for 1915 and the M & W in a shield makers' mark for Mappin & Webb.
Shipping in the UK is £4 by Royal Mail 1st Class Signed For.
Overseas customers, please ask us about shipping costs to your country before making a purchase.
