Silver shell Salt help with markings

Post by JillC »

Hello,

Hope everybody is safe and healthy.

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.
Can anybody give me a lead how I could find more out about this beautiful salt shells?

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. ::::
