About the Item

Antique 19th Century Indian Colonial solid silver trophy cup and cover, exceptionally heavy and decorative, campana form on a spreading foot, domed lid chased and embossed with foliage and topped with a cast horse with jockey. On the front of the trophy cup is engraved "The Comber Cup, Won by Capt'n Gregory's Ma Cherie 1868". Hallmarked "CN&Co" (Charles, Nephew & Co), Calcutta 1848-1870. Charles Nephew & Co. was a prominent British silversmithing and retail firm based in Calcutta (now Kolkata) during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Catering to the colonial elite, the company was known for its high-quality silver products, often influenced by both British and Indian artistic traditions. Their pieces frequently featured intricate repoussé work, detailed engraving, and traditional Indian motifs, reflecting the fusion of Western and Eastern craftsmanship. Like other European firms operating in India, such as Hamilton & Co., Charles Nephew & Co. supplied fine silver goods ranging from tea services to presentation pieces, many of which are now sought after by collectors of Anglo-Indian silver.
