Pair of Antique English Silver Plated Trumpet Posy Vases – Large 19.5 cm
A good quality Pair of English Silver Plated Trumpet Style Posy Vases. The matching pair are both stamped “Made in England” with “EPNS” underneath and are reported to be late Victorian early Edwardian. The bases are nicely weighted but un-marked with a makers or area mark.
The general condition of the vases is good Vintage, with the silver plating still bright and intact and they polish up beautifully, however both have slight dents to the main vase body and tiny sections of the fluting to the top edge have been pushed out of line- please see images. However, this doesn’t detract from the handsome quality of the vases and it great to find a matching pair.

Condition
The pieces are in a Good Vintage condition, with no major dents, splits, or heavy buildup of silver cleaner. As stated both have slight dents to the body/shaft of both vases and some of the fluting to the top edge of both has been slightly pushed out of line in tiny sections. Both have been cleaned for photographing and the plate is in great condition so any imperfections visible in the images will not polish out. Do note that it does not come with its original packaging. It is impossible to be an expert in all realms of selling, and I am representing the items to the best of my knowledge and ability as I always strive to do my research. I encourage you to look closely at all the images and to ask questions you may have to help clarify identification or condition, as I may inadvertently omit information that you as a buyer feel important.
Postage
I am more than happy to wrap carefully and post the item; however, this is at a cost given the delicate nature of the pieces and the packaging required, and everything I send out is on a signed for service.
I am more than happy for the buyer to collect from my KT3 address.
