About the Item

A Very Fine George I Octagonal Sugar Caster Made in London in 1726 by Thomas Bamford I. The Caster is of plain octagonal form and stands on a cast stepped foot which is decorated with reeding. The wide section of the main body is decorated with a double reeded band and the upper selnder section rises to an everted, reeded, rim. The pull-off cover is pierced and engraved with attractive geometric scroll panels and terminates in a stylised octagonal urn finial. The caster is fully marked in the foot and with the maker's mark and sterling mark on the cover. The caster is of a very good weight, gauge and colour and has never been engraved with a heraldic device. Thomas Bamford was a specialist caster maker with workshops in Gutter Lane. He was apprentice to the caster maker, Charles Adam and his apprentice, Samuel Wood, also specialised in the production of sugar casters. Additional information: Height: 7.5 inches, 18.75cm.
