About the Item

A refined and complete antique silver tea set, dating from circa 1870. The set consists of 12 silver tea spoons, a sugar tong, a tea strainer, and a sugar scoop – all housed in their original fitted presentation case. This was made in a time when tea drinking was an exclusive ritual, carried out with the most precious utensils. Tea was considered a luxury, and the ceremony surrounding it was an elegant social event. The craftsmanship of this set reflects that era: the silversmith, the cabinetmaker, and the case interior maker all contributed their skills to this exquisite ensemble. The original box is beautifully inlaid and lined with deep purple velvet and silk, carefully shaped to fit each piece. The silver spoons are engraved with monograms on the reverse, adding a personal historic touch. Condition: Very good and complete, with light wear consistent with age. The silk lining shows minor wear. Dimensions of the case: 11 in x 7.5 in x 1.8 in (28 x 19 x 4.5 cm). Length of the spoons: 6 in (15 cm). A rare and elegant set where multiple 19th-century crafts come together. Free worldwide shipping.
