Antique Elkington Silver Plated Claret Jug with Etched Shore Bird & Cattails
About the Item
This very well executed engraved crystal and silver plated claret jug is hallmarked by the renowned Elkington & Co. of England and dating to approximately 1880 in the period Victorian style. This claret jug has highly detailed cast and silver plated mounts around the top with high relief vignettes around the collar. The handle is nicely shaped and tastefully decorated with scrolls and leaves. The top and spout are also decorated in a similar manner with a beaded surround. Most notably, the body of the jug is engraved with a large Heron or standing shore bird standing in a pond surrounded by bull rushes or cattails which cover the remaining area of the jug and accent the handle. The jug sits on a small silver plated pedestal base. The jug is hallmarked on the collar for Elkington & Co.

Antique silver plated creamer by Elkington & Co made in the United Kingdom in the 1880s.
Elkington & Co are one of the most important names in English Silver and Silver Plate. Elkington started in Birmingham in 1836, and experimented with innovative gilding techniques. By 1838 they had discovered and patented a new way to electroplate one metal on to the surface of another. By 1840 production was already underway with silver electroplated wares. The company received financial backing from Josiah Mason in 1842 (renaming the firm Elkington, Mason & Co between 1842 and 1861) and was extremely successful. It introduced electrotyping as a new method of production for silver plated items. Elkington & Co exhibited at the Great Exhibition of 1851 with enormous success. Elkington held Royal Warrants for Queen Victoria, King Edward VI, King George V, King Edward VIII and King George VI. The Elkington & Co. name is still in use today as manufacturers under the auspices of British Silverware Ltd.
