    Description

    London 1897 Sterling Silver 8-3/4" Sugar Caster Muffineer Repousse Floral Design
    My thanks to you even if you are "Just Looking".  You are staying home, I am staying home and raiding my inventory from the last 20 years stored in my condo to list on EBAY so I can make it through this trying time.  My wishes to you for the same.
    May I offer:
    This Antique Victorian sterling silver muffineer - sugar caster - sugar shaker - spice shaker was made in London by George Jackson & David Fullerton for Josiah Williams & Co. This incredibly ornate shaker features a mass of florals with an unengraved shield at the center. There is a pedestal foot that is unadorned - a nice touch since the main body and top are so completely covered with design! I don't know if you can spot it in my photos but even the holes at the top section are a combination of rounds and lengthy commas (I kid you not)! The lid is topped with a wonderfully turned finial (set within a target of round lines).
    The sugar caster is in terrific condition with just one pin prick I can spot near the edge of the middle section (where the silver flares out). Because I did not polish the tarnish out of the spot, it may show in my photos (and a polish will make the spot appear invisible). No dents or dings, no removals or repairs and the most perfect of vintage patinas. The lid fits snugly into the main section and comes apart easily.
    Height is 8-3/4" (yep, it's a biggie) x about 3-1/2" at the center. The base is 2-3/4" across while the top section has a width of about 2".
    Weight is 238.4 grams.
    The muffineer is a wonder of Sterling Silver and is hallmarked in 3 places. On the lip of the top are the following impressions: 6 - Makers Initials of GJ over DF within a shield (George Jackson & David Fullerton for Josiah Williams & Co) - Lion Passant (Sterling Silver) - "b" in a shield shaped cartouche (1897) - Panther Face (London manufacture). The top of the main body bears the same marks. The bottom inside of the base reads MacKay & Chisolm, Edinburgh 6 along with some scratched in jewelers marks (possibly the retailers of the piece).
    Just about the most gorgeous piece of silver I have ever seen!

    TERMS
    ITEM CONDITION
    I have been doing EBAY for 21 years now and I know what I am doing when it comes to selling.  I describe my items accurately, have multiple pictures on each of my listings so a "surprise" upon receipt is unlikely.  However, if something is amiss, I will remedy the situation as quickly as possible.
    RETURNS/REFUNDS
    *  Any return is to be made within 3 days after Buyer's receipt of item. Please notify ME (not EBAY) asap if you intend on making a return.
    PAYMENT METHODS ACCEPTED
    * PayPal - Any refund made will be less the amount Paypal keeps as a transaction fee. (New as of 11/24/19).
    SALES TAX
    * EBAY now collects sales tax on most states - this will be automatically added to your invoice by EBAY.
    SHIPPING USA
    As mentioned in the shipping area.
    COMBINED SHIPPING
    Yes, I will combine shipping for the best price - just do not pay and let me correct the invoice. If you pay, I can no longer refund the overage.
    PACKAGING
    I package my items very well for transit so please please do not worry - your package will arrive intact.  My home is smoke and pet free!
    OVERSEAS SHIPPING
    This will be mentioned in the appropriate area.
    RIGHT TO SELL
    *
    I sell on other sites so if you try to find my listing and can't, it means it has sold.
    DELIVERY
    * I process mail 2 to 3 times a week so once payment is received, Buyer's package will ship ASAP -  usually 1-2 days after payment is received.  If there is a delay, I will let BUYER know.
    FINAL NOTE
    *  Again, I will process any refund rather than EBAY.  If this rule is not to your liking, then please do not purchase the item.
    Thanks for visiting!
