Antique Silver 'badminton' Gilded Mug

Well, this is quite splendid! A solid sterling silver mug, gilded inside, superbly engraved with a playing scene. The mug is hallmarked for London 1854 with the maker's mark of George Angell & Co. It is very slightly waisted in shape and sits flat. The gilding inside is worn on the top rim, probably as a result of over-enthusiastic cleaning. The engraving is crisp, amazing given its age, and features a badminton match, with flora, trees, pagoda, fence etc. Dimensions: Silver Weight: 125g Height: 8.5cm Width: 9.5cm Diameter of base: 7.5cm Complimentary gift wrapping is available on request.
