£75English Pewter Pint Mug,
A finely patinated 19th Century ‘pear’, or ‘baluster’ formed pewter Ale Mug with turned rim with a ‘broken’ style handle and thumb-piece all on a heavy ogee moulded and banded base. A profusion of pseudo-hallmarks and touch marks indicate the age and manufacture of the vessell, with the lack of a crown stamped Imperial Measure mark perhaps suggesting a date earlier than 1826. The Capacity Mark indicates a true Pint measure.£75 -

An early 19th Century pewter Ale Mug with broad banding and a turned rim with an articulated ‘strap’ style handle and notched thumb-piece all on a heavy ogee moulded base. The ‘Pre-Imperial’ William III Ale-Standard verification mark suggests a date of manufacture before the Weights & Measures Act of 1835 and the distinctive arms suggest an origin in the City of London. A hand-cut design on the outward-facing side of the vessell indicates the historic owner and locates them in Marcham, near Abingdon in the Historic County of Berkshire.£60 -

More broadly the Pewterers marks indicate a mid to late Victorian date, with the crowned arms of the City of London and the history of the founders at which it was made circusmscribing the period of manufacture to between 1876 and 1878. The Capacity Mark indicates a true Quart measure.£85 -
English Pewter Pint Tavern Jug
£85 eachEnglish Pewter Pint Tavern Jug
A finely patinated, straight sided and banded pewter Tavern Jug with spout, turned rim, and ‘strap’ style handle and thumb-piece, all on a heavy ogee-moulded and double-banded base. Hand inscribed by it’s historic owner the jug records one ‘E. Wood’ of the Scotts Arms on Hermitage Bridge in Wapping in the old Docks of London. The Scotts Arms public house was run by a Mrs Elizabeth Wood between 1834 and 1861 and prospered for many years before its demolition in 2004. A single, faded, Verification Mark, combined with the shape and profile of the vessel itself would also tend to date it to the early middle part of the Nineteenth Century. The Capacity Mark indicates a true Pint measure.£85 each -

An attractive Petwerers Mark indicates its manufacture in the environs of the City of London, specifically at the firms of Harton & Sons, Pewterers of High Holborn.
