Antique Silver by Lydia Darbyshire
A guide to the identification of antique silver, produced with the help of a team of experts from the London Silver Vaults Association. The main part of this guide illustrates and describes 120 pieces of silver by the world's greatest makers. The entries are divided into types of piece, from coffee pots to candelabra, and within each section the pieces are arranged chronologically. Each entry gives details of size, date, maker, marks, assay office and distinctive features, together with information on the maker's style and techniques to help identify additional pieces. Together with information on reading hallmarks, judging the condition of pieces and looking after antique silver, this book should appeal to both the established and novice collector.
