This incredible table service by the esteemed firm Elkington & Co. is undoubtedly the most lavish commission the firm ever created. The service includes all of the table decorations and service items necessary to host a complete formal dinner, including everything from flatware and drinking goblets to elaborate serving dishes and ice buckets. Crafted in 1879-80, the service is housed in a large Gothic-style burled walnut chest with five fitted and felt-lined drawers. Each of the interior doors bears the Elkington royal coronet. The case is completed by four ornate bronze carrying handles. The top of the chest is marked with a brass monogram with the initials “RP,” as is nearly every single item held within the chest’s contents. The set includes stunning table garniture and each of this set’s elaborate serving dishes is reminiscent of the finest epergnes ever made. These items include eight small presentation dishes, four larger dishes, two grand dishes and one ultimate centerpiece that is breathtaking in size and majesty. These objets d’art are further elevated by a gilt and crystal centerpiece made of phenomenal electroplate silver — Elkington’s original and revolutionary process. The largest serving dish measures an impressive 35” wide, and when the collection is assembled on a formal dining table or sideboard, the effect is spectacular. Other items in the set include a pair of etched glass ice buckets with pierced silver-plate strainer inserts, engraved glass and gilt water pitcher, grape shears, delicate claw-shaped tongs and 24 Christofle gilt goblets. The elaborate set is completed by a sterling and bone fish flatware service comprising 18 forks and 18 knives and, finally, a breathtaking 125-piece partially gilt sterling flatware service.The flatware handles are topped with beautiful Minerva figures, and the blades of the knives each bear a different fish species or maritime scene. Every crystal bowl is finely engraved and carefully nestled in the case’s original green baize lining. Elkington & Co. was arguably the most esteemed silver firm in Europe. The celebrated firm patented the first commercial electroplating process and held Royal Warrants for Queen Victoria, King Edward VI...

Large size and great design, antique tantalus. This wonderful condition and rare, three crystal bottles holding, tiger oak tantalus will look great everywhere. This handcrafted work of beauty dates from the late 1800s and it comes with a variety of striking details and compartments. The two folding lids come with beautifully silvered brass hinges and the lock works perfectly via the original key. It is only when you have opened the lids that you can press the silvered button in the middle (it is on a stick) to open the secret drawer below. In the back of the secret drawer is a game that we have never seen before (see image 11) and we don't know if it is complete. The secret drawer can also be used to keep decks of cards and alike. Also, only when the lids are open, will you be able to take out the bottles as well. For those who did not yet know, these striking 'minibars' with lock and key were created so that the butler or maid or any other non-family member could not secretly drink the very expensive liquids that these decanters would have held. The crystal decanters and stoppers...
