Located in London, GB
An Exceptionally Rare George II Antique Silver "Acorn" Nutmeg Grater Made in London circa 1750 by Samuel Meriton This very rare example is modelled to simulate an acorn and is decorated with reeded and beaded bands to simulate the shape of an acorn. The cover unscrews to reveal the removable steel grater and this piece is in excellent condition, with a good colour.

Similar examples are contained within the famous Robert & Meredith Green...
