Antique Sterling Silver Salts – 1902 Henry Hobson & Sons Pair

£ 65.00

On offer is a superb pair of antique English sterling silver salt cellars, fully hallmarked for Birmingham, 1902, and bearing the maker’s mark of the renowned silversmiths Henry Hobson & Sons. With over a century of history, these elegant tableware pieces are both functional and highly collectible.

Each salt cellar stands on three ornate hoof feet topped with detailed shell motifs, a classic Edwardian design echoing the Rococo revival influences of the period. The body is scalloped with a gentle lobed rim and a soft, rounded form that exudes timeless elegance.

Both salts are in good antique condition. There is some gentle age-related wear, and the rims are slightly out of perfect shape, which is common in antique pieces and does not affect their structural integrity. There are no holes, splits, or repairs, and they display beautifully.

They have a combined weight of 56 grams and measure approximately 1.5 inches high and 2.5 inches in diameter, making them ideal for display, use, or as a cherished gift for a silver enthusiast.
