Vintage Silverplate English Mugs (Prices Vary!)
Found at market in the north of England, we are pleased to present this fascinating collection of Vintage Silverplate Mugs.
Silver mugs such as these have a long history in England, dating to the 16th century. Originally much larger, the mugs became more petite by the early 1700s and remained popular for centuries. A fashionable gift for christenings, sporting triumphs, or special occasions like weddings and birthdays, mugs such as these were both functional drinking vessels and decorative status symbols.
This lovely collection sparkles across the decades, with each mug certain to bring its shining charms to your home - whether used as a mug, a small vase, or holder for items on a desktop of vanity.
Each tankard is strictly one-of-a-kind and subject to prior sale. Please choose specific tankard from the drop down menu above. In very good vintage condition. A: 3.5"D x 3.5"H. 4"H x 4.25"D. C: 3.75"D x 4"H. D: 3.75"D x 3.24"H. E: 3.5"D x 3"H
