Hello,

My friend has 8 silver shell Salts from her Grandmother and she ask me if I can find out the maker and I spent sometime on the internet and found this wonderful forum.

I'm so used to seeing this form in American silver from 1870-1880. :::: I'm really surprised that this comes from the year 1832 in England. :::: Based on form and style alone, it seems decades ahead of its time. ::::
