Seller: hailey89 ✉️ (660) 100%, Location: London, GB, Ships to: GB, EUROPEAN_UNION, Item: 204711898810 George III Hallmarked Irish Sterling Silver Helmet Jug Dublin c.1760. Offered here is a George III Irish sterling silver helmet shaped jug.  This piece was made in Dublin c. 1760 by a maker with the initials 'I.W.' (there are several; possibilities for the identity of the maker, so I have left it to you to decide which maker is the correct one) This piece has had a rather rough life, although it is in perfectly serviceable condition.   The jug features three 'hoof' feet on legs which meet the body with shell-shaped elements.  The handle is lovely and absolutely correct, and there is no damage to the spout. There has been a repair to the body, which I have circled on my photos of both the interior and exterior surface.  This is a very old repair, and indicative of the esteem in which this item was held by a long ago owner.  Somehow, imperfections like this one, a loving restoration, add to the allure and charm of a piece.  I do hope someone out there appreciates it as much as that long ago owner. Height: 4 inches, 10cm Weight: 141g
