This is a smart and practical George V Sterling Silver Egg Cup from the 1920s. The egg cup has a circular stepped base, a small pedestal stem and a classic urn shaped cup. There are no initials or personalisation of any kind.

The egg cup was made in Birmingham by silversmiths William Neale & Son and dates to 1928. The firm was founded by William Neale in Birmingham in 1862, becoming William Neale & Son in 1890. They produced a very wide range of silverware from trophies to tea services and cigarette boxes to pencils and were highly successful. They remained in business into the mid 1960s.

Whilst the egg cup has certainly seen some use, condition is generally good with just a few tiny dings and the superficial surface wear that you would expect with use and the passage of time. Please make sure to view all the photographs.

The egg cup stands 6.5cm / 2.5ins high and is 4.8cm / 1.9ins in diameter. It weighs in at a respectable 28.1g / 0.99oz of solid Sterling Silver.

The hallmarks, just below the top rim, are nice and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the anchor assay mark for Birmingham the date letter D for 1928 and the W.N LTD makers' mark for William Neale & Son Ltd.
