Antique Silver George II Chamberstick made in 1751
A rare George II antique silver chamberstick of shaped form with bold shell borders and a cast shaped thumbpiece.
Mid-18th century chambersticks of shell form are quite rare, unlike their candlestick equivalents.
This chamberstick is a super example of good weight and condition by an interesting maker who died in the year this was made.
Dimensions: full width (from thumbpiece to side) 17 cm, diameter 14.7 cm; weight 11 troy oz.

No record of apprenticeship or freedom.
First mark entered as largeworker, 23 May 1739. Address (at the Seive on Saffron Hill”.
Second mark , 14 February 1746. Address; Blue Court , Saffron Hill.
