Silver Spoons
M. Wachenheimer & Co Ltd
Hallmarked London, 1899

This exceptional pair of Edwardian salt cellars by Robert Stebbings showcases the elegance and refinement of early 20th-century British silverwork. Accompanied by late Victorian salt spoons made by M. Wachenheimer & Co, this set embodies the artistry and craftsmanship of the turn of the 20th century. Once an essential element of grand dining tables, these open salts reflect both practicality and status.

Each cellar features a gracefully rounded bowl adorned with swirling stop-fluted repoussé work. The inset domed foot provides stability, while the applied hollow handles enhance the design with their delicate curvature. The accompanying salt spoons, with their smooth ovoid bowls and handles finished with ball finials, perfectly complement the cellars.

Salt was once a rare and valuable commodity, and vessels such as these were not merely tableware but also statements of wealth and sophistication. This particular set carries further distinction as part of the renowned Red McCombs Silver Collection.

Open salts: 2 7/8" high x 3" wide x 2 1/3" deep
