We have a passion for English and Continental silver, with pieces dating from the 18th to 20th centuries - Georgian, Victorian, Arts & Crafts, Art Nouveau and Art Deco. Our collection includes dining silverware such as flatware, cruets, casters, and napkin rings, as well as boxes, stationery, and nécessaires. We also love sourcing unique Asian silver, including Burmese, Chinese, and Indian pieces.
Provenance matters deeply to us. Every item we offer is a genuine vintage or antique piece, carefully chosen for its quality and authenticity. We take great pride in inspecting each piece meticulously, so you can buy with confidence and enjoy a little piece of history in your home.

Description
A small Victorian solid sterling silver slimline vesta case by Sampson Mordan, featuring a rectangular body with gently curved sides and the maker’s characteristic flat-top spring-loaded lid. The front is decorated with a crest of a stag head, while the back bears a stylised SSY (possibly) monogram. The lid opens cleanly and snaps shut with a firm, satisfying action, and the hinge remains strong with no play. A match striker is positioned on the base, and the piece is fully hallmarked.
Hallmarks: London, Silver fineness 925. Maker Sampson Mordan & Co
