Monumental silver vase valued for insurance

We recently undertook an insurance valuation of a collection of silver and the stand out piece was this monumental silver Warwick style 2-handled vase with applied masks and entwined vine handles, on a circular embossed foot engraved with the maker’s name of Elkington & Co.

It has the date letter on the hallmark for Birmingham 1901/1902, stands 40cm high and weighs in at nearly 225 troy ounces. So it is heavier than the FA Cup and about the same height, if you don’t count the lid on the FA Cup.

Valuations can often be provided from photographs and dimensions. So, if you require a silver valuation for insurance, sale or probate purposes, please get in touch.

The Anchor Inn, Seatown,near Bridport. An oil painting by the highly accomplished Hove artist Charles Henry Harrison Burleigh. Probably painted in the 1920s or 30s and aside from the creation of a car park the scene has hardly changed.
He studied at the Brighton School of Art and in Paris under the tutelage of Jacques-Emile Blanche. His work was exhibited at the Royal Academy and Fine Art Society and is in the collections of The Slade, UCL, Brighton Pavilion and Brighton Museum and many provincial art galleries.

This was my favourite car at the London Concours at the Honourable Artillery Company. This is a Maserati 3500 GT from 1962 which resided for over 50 years in America before coming to this country in 2012.
