Details: A fantastic and wonderfully designed pair of early-georgian Exeter provincial sterling silver pedestal tazza dishes both with classical early georgian minimalist finished hallmarked with the makers punch for the important Exeter silversmith John Elston. Elston also served as mayor of Exeter in the early 18th century and was clearly a figure of great talent and regard. The two tazzas are in original condition with no evidence of repairs or modification. With the Exeter assay office only opening in 1701 these represent a very early example of West Country silverware. This is a wonderful item that would make a perfect gift or addition to any collection. We are more than happy to provide XRF reports for items upon request.
