Suffolk Silver Tea And Coffee Set
5 piece Suffolk Silversmiths silver plated tea and coffee serving set. This set includes one tea pot, one coffee pot, one sugar bowl, one creamer cup, and one fancy tray. Both the coffee and tea pot measures about 9"-10" inches tall and about 4" inches in diameter. From edge of handle to edge of spout it's about 8" inches long. One is about an inch taller than the other so they are not both the two same serving pieces. They could probably use a good polish as some spots are tarnished. All pieces have great ornate detail and beautiful colorful patina. The creamer and sugar set measure about 3-4" inches tall and about 4-5" inches from edge of handle to the other edge of handle. There's no scuffing on these pieces but some tarnish and some very slight usage marks. The fancy tray measures about 23" inches from handle to handle and about 14" inches in width. Overall this still is a wonderful set of silverplated serving set. It is by Suffolk Silversmiths of England which was actually produced by Gorham silver. It is very hard to find an actual matching set with the fancy tray such as the one here. I don't have an exact date of when the pieces were made but I've seen some Suffolk Silversmiths dated from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. My guess is that it's from the 1920s era.
