Carrington and Co Sterling Silver 4-Piece Tea Set,

27.39 ozt ASW

This sterling silver tea and coffee set was made by Carrington and Co, the London jewelers and silversmiths who held a Royal Warrant as Crown Jewellers from 1919 to 1927. Carrington and Co pieces from this era favor clean half-fluted bodies and ebonized handles over heavy ornamentation, a restrained Edwardian style that appeals to collectors of understated English silver.

This four piece set includes a squat teapot, a taller pedestal-based hot water or coffee pot, an open sugar bowl, and an open creamer, all sharing matching half-fluted bodies, ebonized handles, and finials. Total weight comes to 27.39 troy ounces of actual silver weight (ASW), a measure of the precious metal content rather than gross weight including the ebonized parts.

A well matched Carrington and Co tea and coffee service with timeless elegance, appealing to collectors of English sterling and Crown Jewellers pieces.
