George III Classical Water/Wine Ewer Made in London in 1791 by John Robins

About the Item

This very fine piece stands on a circular pedestal foot decorated with reeding and engraved with stylised foliate bright cutting. The Classical vase shaped main body rises to a reeded band above a beautiful band of flower heads in octagonal frames. The front displays a shield shaped cartouche engraved with contemporary script initials surrounded by a very finely executed cartouche of drapery mantling. The base of the neck is decorated with a band of prick dot bands and foliate motifs and also rises to a reeded rim. The bright cut domed, hinged, cover terminates in an urn finial. The jug displays its original fruitwood handle and is in excellent, crisp, condition. The base displays a crisp set of hallmarks and the underside of the cover is marked with the sterling mark. John Roberts was a prolific maker who specialised in tea and coffee wares, always with fine finish. Measures: Height: 12 inches, 30cm. Diameter, at the widest point: 5 inches, 12.5cm Weight: 27oz.
