- Pair of Hunt (Assistant to Storr) Sterling Silver 1850 Covered Vegetable DishesBy John Samuel HuntLocated in New York, NYJohn Samuel Hunt, English pair of sterling silver multi-lobed covered vegetable dishes from 1850 (Victorian era) adorned with curvilinear natural motifs. They measure 12'' by 12'' by 4 3/4'' in height, weigh 97 troy ounces, and bear hallmarks as shown. The exquisite design of these pieces is such that the so-called button at the top of the covered dishes is removable. This means that these covered dishes can easily become two bowls (four in total), each beautifully adorned with natural motifs, each measuring by 12'' by 11'' by 1 1/2'' in height. Hunt & Roskell, a firm of manufacturing and retail jewelers and silversmiths, was founded by Paul Storr in 1819, trading as Storr & Co. (1819-22), Storr & Mortimer (1822-38), Mortimer & Hunt (1838-43) and then Hunt & Roskell (1843-97). John Samuel Hunt, who had assisted Storr from the start, continued as a partner until his death in 1865, when he was succeeded by his son. Paul Storr (1770-1844) is considered the greatest English silversmith of the Regency era, and his beautifully ornate silver reflected the rapidly changing world in which he lived. Storr's reputation rests on his mastery of the grandiose neo-Classical style developed in the Regency period. He quickly became the most prominent silversmith of the nineteenth century, producing much of the silver purchased by King George III and King George IV. Much of Storr's success was due to the influence of Philip...Category
