Grandfather's Tea Set

The set has been handed down over the years with very little information other than it is not sterling. Any info would be much appreciated.



Any hallmarks, signs, signatures?

Looks like about a two-pint teapot and creamer and sucre late Vicky. Selling on ebay, maybe you get lucky.

May be made by Sheffield’s Gladwin Ltd, normally associated with flatware.

This is a pure guess based on similar image. You can put us all out of our misery by taking a photo of the trade marks on the underside if there are any. If there aren’t then it’s not Gladwin.

Please post a photo of the bottom with any makers marks or information, so we can help you more accurately. Lovely set teapot has an exquisite finial looks like a palm tree.
The shape is referred to as a bullet shape, the period these were primarily made was 1730 t0 1770. It could be a later copy.` NOTE prices in book are for STERLING ANTIQUES. Yours could be silverplate of Sheffield Plate both have totally different origins and values.
