Barnard & Sons English Sterling Silver 1904 Two-Handled Wine Cooler/ Vase

About the Item

Barnard & Sons sterling silver two-handled wine cooler or vase, made in London in 1904, standing on a stepped round base, the handles adorned with raised beaded motifs. It measures 9 7/8'' in height by 10 1/2'' from handle to handle (6 1/3'' in diameter at the top), weighs 38 troy ounces, and bears hallmarks as shown. Edward Barnard & Sons was a firm of British silversmiths. They created the Lily font, a large silver gilt baptismal font used in the christening services of members of the British Royal family. The company's origins date back to about 1680, when the silversmith Anthony Nelme (d. 1722) established a firm in Ave Maria Lane, London. Edward Barnard (d. 1855) was first manager and in 1829 became the proprietor, trading as Edward Barnard & Sons, with his sons Edward Barnard (d. 1868), John Barnard and William Barnard (d. 1851). In 1838, they moved to Angel Street, London. The Lily font was commissioned by Queen Victoria from Edward Barnard and Sons, for the christening of her first child, Victoria, Princess Royal on 10 February 1840, her parents' first wedding anniversary. In 1898, they moved to Fetter Lane, and in 1920, to Hatton Garden, London. In 1977, they became a subsidiary of Padgett & Braham, and closed in 2003. Their pieces are in the permanent collections of prestigious museums, including the British Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Victoria and Albert Museum.
