About
Saunders & Shepherd
A fine, 1931 sterling silver presentation model of the Supermarine S6b Schneider Trophy-winning seaplane, made by English silversmiths Saunders & Shepherd, perhaps better known for their creation of the elements of the sterling silver Rolls-Royce desk set.
This model is well detailed with an articulated rudder, elevators, ailerons and a rotating propeller and mounted on a black lacquered presentation base. Fully hallmarked with maker’s marks and date marks for 1931.
The Supermarine S5, S6 and S6b Seaplanes won the Schneider Trophy outright, following its victories in 1927, 1929 and 1931.
