A fine example of a Georgian solid Silver milk or cream jug with a punched border around the rim and elegant curved handle, stood on a round footed base. The jug is stylish and good quality, weighing approximately 71g.
It is clearly hallmarked on the base for London, 1788. The maker appears to be GB, possibly George Burrows but hard to identify for certain.

It is in good condition for its age. There are no major damages and it displays beautifully. There is a small split in the rim and some minor dinks and knocks on the surface but nothing untoward. There are some faint internal and external surface marks and signs of age and use but nothing detrimental. It has been gently cleaned and polished and is ready for use.
