About the Item

Thomas Heming set of 4 hand-beaten sterling silver quaich cups, made in London, England, in 1801 (Georgian era), adorned with an engraved crest and with 2 handles. They measure 4'' from handle to handle (2 2/3'' in diameter) by 2 1/3'' in height, weigh 17.1 troy ounces, and bear hallmarks as shown. Thomas Heming was apprenticed to Edmund Bodington and to Peter Archambo, goldsmith. He registered his first mark in June 1745. In 1760, he was appointed principal goldsmith to King George III, in which capacity he was responsible for supplying regalia and plate required for the coronation. Heming held this appointment until 1782. Among Heming's outstanding works are a silver-gilt toilet service made for Queen Caroline of Denmark in 1766 and a wine cistern of 1770.
