An early twentieth century silver condiment set.

An early twentieth century silver condiment set, including an open salt with blue glass liner, a mustard pot and pepper, each of plain bellied form and raised upon four pad feet, the hinged lid of the mustard pot and pierced cover of the pepper with wrythen finials. Hallmarked Williams (Birmingham) Ltd., Birmingham 1920. Height of pepper measures 3 6/8 inches (9.5 cm), gross weight exclusive of liner 5.6 ozt (175.6 grams). In good overall condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The interior of the open salt is heavily tarnished and stained, its blue glass liner is significantly chipped along the edge. The mustard pot has no liner present, its hinged lid has some sideways movement and appears loose, some minor tarnish stains to the interior. The pepper has heavy remnants of pepper lining the interior which covers the pierced holes of the cover and some sticky residue also visible, would benefit from a clean and polish. Hallmarks slightly rubbed but still legible.
