Victorian Silver

These are some of my favorite Victorian silver pieces.  Above is a Chocolate Pot. 


It has the word Chocolate engraved across the front.  It is similar to a teapot. 

This is one of the most unusual pieces I have seen.  It is a Victorian Sugar Cube Caddy.

The handle is actually sugar tongs.

The sugar tongs lift out when squeezed together.

An old hand mirror.

Engraved Caroline.

With dancing ladies on the border.

And a crumber with a devil-ish face design.

 
Crumbers were used to sweep crumbs or ashes off of tables, into the larger pan.

    You have the best silver pieces. I think maybe that sugar caddy is my favorite with the mirror running a close second.

    Love these pieces! I've been looking for a crumb catcher (or silent butler!) for our dining room. The chocolate pot is fabulous and I love the sugar cube caddy!
