This exceptional antique George V six piece sterling silver condiment set consists of two salts, two pepper pots and two mustard pots.
The pieces of this fine antique condiment set have a classic and desirable octagonal panelled form to a swept foot.
The surface of each piece is plain and embellished with a contemporary bright cut engraved initial 'W'.
The upper rim of each piece is ornamented with an applied moulded border.
The mustard pot is fitted with an angular sterling silver handle with a plain upper plateau.
The mustard pot retains the original hinged hallmarked plain domed cover surmounted with a lobed thumbpiece.
The pepper pots are fitted with domed push fit covers with pierced 'pepper' holes and are surmounted with urn style finials.
Each mustard pot and salt are fitted with the original removable blue glass liner.
The set is presented with plain mustard and salt spoons; these spoons have been crafted in the same year as the service by the silversmiths S Blanckensee & Son Ltd.
This antique sterling silver 6 piece condiment set with spoons is fitted to the original hinged leatherette box with satin and velvet lined interior and secures with two hinged catches.
