Item: Fish Slice Description: Admiralty Pattern
Hallmark: London 1855 by John Samuel Hunt (Hunt & Roskell)
Dimensions: 310 mm long; weight 190 grams
Comments: An extremely rare and highly
desirable server in the Royal Naval issue (denoted by the arrow stamp
adjacent to the hallmarks) Admiralty Pattern. The fouled anchor motif is
die-stamped to the front terminal. The pattern was first produced circa
1838. The makers of this piece were a continuation of the company founded
by Paul Storr - the crown above the makers mark indicates their Royal
"by appointment" warrant. To the reverse side of the stem is an
engraved crest of a knight's head with motto "VIRTUS ET HONOS"
(Virtue and Honour). Superb quality and condition.
Price: SOLD
