London 1868 'Bucket and Spade Salts' - Maker ECB ??

Postby buttons » Sun Nov 05, 2006 7:31 am

Hello

Would much appreciate any help in identifying maker ECB.

Lovely heavy guage set of 4 salts shaped as buckets with swing handles and the spoons shaped as spades in original case, gilded interiors, lovely work. Bought from GEO Upton Jewellers and Silversmiths at 24 St James's Street London - close up of hallmark attached.

Thanks very much
