Victorian Silver Dish, Henry Hobson, B'ham, 1900


This is an attractive late Victorian Sterling Silver Dish. The dish has a marquise shaped base with a low band of pierced geometric decoration just above it. The top rim of the body is decorated with scrolls and flowers. There are no initials or personalisation of any kind.
The dish is made in Birmingham by Henry Hobson & Sons and dates to 1900, the last full year of Queen Victoria's reign. Henry Hobson started his firm in Sheffield as a cutlery retailer and wholesaler, taking over the running of the business of John Pearce, his father-in-law, in the 1840s. He had premises in Sheffield and London and was joined by his sons and later grandsons. In the 1890s the firm began producing their own silverware in London, Sheffield and Birmingham and continued to do so until the firm ceased trading in the late 1930s.
Condition is very good, with no dings or dents and just the superficial surface wear that you would expect after 123 years of good service. Please make sure to view all the photographs.
The dish is 15.8cm / 6.2ins long, 10cm / 3.9ins wide and stands 2.3cm / 0.9ins high. It weighs in at a respectable 49.0g / 1.7oz of solid Sterling Silver.
The hallmarks, at one end of the dish, are well struck and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the anchor assay mark for Birmingham, the date letter a for 1900 and the H H & S makers' mark for Henry Hobson & Sons.
Shipping in the UK is £6 by Royal Mail Tracked 24.
Overseas customers, please ask us about shipping costs to your country before making a purchase.
