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.

A finely patinated mid 19th Century 'straight sided' pewter Ale Mug with turned rim with a 'broken' style handle and thumb-piece all on a heavy ogee moulded and banded base. Hand engraved with the initials of the historic owner, the vessel shows a Surrey County verificaion mark and Imperial Pint capacity mark while on the underside it is inscribed the name of the Lightermans Arms Public House, Bermondsey. The Lightermans arms was a small beer-shop which existed between 1853 and 1907 in the Surrey Docks on the corner of Kenning Street and Swan Road in what is now considered Rotherhithe, South East London.

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.

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.

A finely patinated 19th Century deep 'bulbous' or 'pear' formed pewter Ale Mug with turned rim with a 'strap' style handle and indented thumb-piece on a heavy ogee moulded and banded base. The Touch Mark is that of James Yates of Birmingham which, along with the profile of the handle and body of the vessel, would suggest a date of manufacture around the year 1840. The Capacity Mark indicaes that the Mug holds a true British Imperial Pint.  

An early 19th Century Pewter Ale measure with spout. An articulated 'broken' style, double-volute handle with a notched thumb-piece and is set on a tapering 'pear shape' barrell with broad banding and a turned rim, all on a heavy ogee moulded base. 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. The retrospective introduction of a 'Capacity Mark', notwithstanding, it likely dates from the mid 1860s. A hand-cut design on the outward-facing side of the vessell indicates the initials of an historic owner while underneath the name of the Royal Oak public house is extant.

with lightly hammered body, stamped 'Argent' Pewter to base.
