Each piece of this exceptional set was crafted by the London silversmiths George Maudsley Jackson & David Landsborough Fullerton of Josiah Williams & Co; the items will have been crafted in the same year but due to the hallmarking system, the bowl is struck with the date letter 'b' and the sifter spoon bears the date letter 'c'.
