To the side of the coffee pot there is a blank cartouche which remains free of a heraldic crest or a monogram which is a rarity for a piece of this age. The pot features hallmarks for manufacture in London in 1748 under the reign of George II, however the makers mark which is located on the underside of the pot is slightly rubbed and remains unidentified. The piece is in extraordinarily good condition for an item made 275 years ago and is still as usable today as it was in 1748. A beautiful addition to the breakfast table with freshly decanted coffee, or a potentially prized item for an English silver collector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMarked - hallmarks for London 1748 and unidentified makers mark\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMeasures - 24.5cm H x 21cm W\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTotal weight of piece - 844.5 grams\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Antique Guild","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44261320163637,"sku":"ST0200","price":6400.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/3042\/9254\/products\/ST0200-1.jpg?v=1673669708"},{"product_id":"sterling-3-piece-coffee-set-by-sigvard-bernadotte-for-georg-jensen","title":"Sterling Silver Three Piece Coffee Set by Sigvard Bernadotte for Georg Jensen","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThis three piece sterling silver coffee set was designed by Sigvard Bernadotte and manufactured by Georg Jensen. The elongated set is known as pattern '967' and is one of the more scarce designs by Sigvard Bernadotte, accented with a woven (presumably plastic) handle to insulate it for service. Sigvard Bernadotte was the son of Gustav VI of Sweden, and later aunt to Queen Margarethe of Denmark. When he married a woman 'of unequal rank' in 1934 he lost his titles and became simply known as 'Mr Bernadotte'. Known for his design skills he worked designing for Georg Jensen for many years but also designed eyewear and even a typewriter.

The piece has a date mark indicating it was manufactured in London in 1804. The piece has a period monogram to the handle which reads 'JEM', likely the initials of the original owner. The piece is in good antique condition however has a slight warp\/bend to the central part of the handle. It should be noted that in the image of the hallmarks that the maker's mark is not visible, however when viewing it in person it is more readily visible. A charming addition to a collection of Bateman silver or for a collector of Georgian flatware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMarked - London hallmarks for 1804 and rubbed maker's mark for Peter, Ann, \u0026amp; William Bateman\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasures - 17cm L\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal weight of piece - 39.5 grams\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"The Antique Guild","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49857990787381,"sku":"SF2020","price":395.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/3042\/9254\/files\/SF2020-01.jpg?v=1722903689"},{"product_id":"william-iv-sterling-silver-wine-funnel","title":"William IV Sterling Silver Wine Funnel","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis sterling silver wine funnel dates to the reign of William IV and is what we call a 'marriage' of two pieces.

The small footed bowl is almost entirely without ornamentation and could be described as being similar to a Paul Revere bowl, despite his designs being made in the United States during the 18th Century and this piece being from Georgian England. The piece has crisp hallmarks for manufacture in 1760 which is the year George II died, and George III succeeded. The silversmith John Barbe was noted to have produced silver in London from 1741-1769. The piece has no monograms or engravings which is somewhat unusual for a piece from the Georgian era.

The piece has been forged from 800 purity silver (Italian standard) in Milan, likely in the late 1960s. The piece is hallmarked for manufacture by 'Eugenio e Angelo Orefice' who were operating their workshop between 1955 and 1971. The silver hallmark for Milano which is present on this piece was only introduced in 1968, and the partnership of Eugenio \u0026amp; Angelo Orefice finished in 1971, allowing us to comfortably date the manufacture of this piece to between 1968 and 1971. The central section of the fountain depicts a seated figure of Neptune which towers above more depictions of Neptune, seashells, reeds, seahorses, crabs and octopuses. The piece has been recently polished and overhauled by our silversmith, however we have not had the pump wired or tested for use and the piece will require this to be done by its new custodians in order for the fountain to function. There have been several other examples of table fountains by Eugenio \u0026amp; Angelo Orefice which have passed through the hands of antique dealers and fine auction houses, however it is very likely that this example is the only fountain of its kind in Australia, and is most likely to be a unique piece. A monumental object which would be a true conversation piece in the home of a silver collector, or a focal point in a fine interior.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarked - '800' for silver purity along with Milanese silver assay mark, '✭ 509 MI' \u0026amp; 'LAVORAZIONE MANO' (handwork\/handmade)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasures - 75cm L x 56cm W x 42cm H\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Antique Guild","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50329593938229,"sku":"SC1100","price":55000.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/3042\/9254\/files\/Italian-Fountain-1.jpg?v=1733437962"},{"product_id":"pair-of-warthog-tusk-candlesticks-with-silver-800-accents","title":"Pair of Silver Mounted Warthog Tusk Candlesticks","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA pair of Continental candlesticks made from warthog tusks mounted in an .800 purity silver bases with capitals, and drip pans each accented with gadrooned edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eDimensions: 29cm H x 27cm W\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Antique Guild","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50397453549877,"sku":"SC1005","price":3250.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/3042\/9254\/files\/Boar-Tusks-1.jpg?v=1734583776"},{"product_id":"geometrically-incised-coconut-shell-with-sterling-silver-mounts","title":"Carved Coconut With Sterling Silver Mounts Attributed to Horace Woodward \u0026 Co","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis wonderful 19th Century carved coconut has been mounted with a silver foot and silver rim. The body of the deep brown coconut has been incised with a tribal geometric pattern before it was mounted in silver in the United Kingdom. Interestingly there is only one hallmark to the entire body of the piece, that of a 'HW', which is most likely for Victorian maker Horace Woodward \u0026amp; Co who operated between 1874 and 1877. Upon looking at the hallmark for Horace Woodward which matches that of this cup, and discovering he mounted other coconuts in silver we can safely attribute the piece to him. Unfortunately a date mark is missing, but his company produced other wares which are date marked from 1874 to 1877, so it's likely this cup was mounted in the 1870s.

The collapsable cup features the remnants of a gilt wash interior which would have been done to prevent tarnishing on the inside.
