More about William Comyns & Sons Ltd:
William Comyns sterling is among the finest and most renowned silver products ever to come out of England. The eponymous silversmith acquired the company from a gentleman named Robert Tagg and erected a factory around 1860.
In 1885, the company name changed to William Comyn & Son after William welcomed his two boys Charles Harling Comyns and Richard Harling Comyns into the business. Around the mid-20th century, in the wake of Richard's death in 1853, the firm is regarded to have lost some of its original prominence but nonetheless endured.
Recently “picked” from the Greater Philadelphia area, I personally hand select each antique, piece of art, jewelry or any other item of interest myself.
