William IV Sterling silver and cut glass cruet set on stand with carrying handle. Made London, England 1832 by John, Henry and Chas Lias.


Length approx 10 inches and height approx 10 1/4 inches.
Shaped rectangular stand with gadrooned foliate/floral borders and beautiful shell feet. The handle consists of a series of arches - 4 sweeping from the

sides and joining in the middle in a tapering stand that supports a u-shaped swirl with small scrolling ends. This in turn supports an arched handle, with

the same gadrooned flowers and leaves as the bottom rim. The fitted bottles, held within support rings, stand on a platform, linked to the gently curving rim

by an inverted, curving side. There are a total of 8 bottles. 4 have fuchsia shaped glass stoppers/lids. 4 have sterling silver lids, each with a

finial/handle and pierced according to the function of the bottle: one with swirling reticulation used as a sugar sifter, one with small holes, for

salt/pepper. Two with closed lids - one for mustard and one with a long, silver spoon attached to the indside of the lid.
The glass is faceted and cut

in a variety of columnar and circular designs. Very solid, stable appearance. Rings at terminals of two arches for holding stoppers when bottle is in use.




Silver is hallmarked: Monarch facing right, lion passant, date letter 'r' for 1832. Leopard head indicating London. Makers marks (some slightly worn) are IL

over HL over CL for John, Henry and Chas Lias.
