Antique American Sterling Silver Salt Cellars – Pair – English Taste – Gilt Interiors – 3.28 Troy Ounces
$695.00
A beautifully crafted pair of antique American sterling silver salt cellars, executed in the elegant English Revival style popular in the late 19th to early 20th century.
Each pedestal-form cellar features finely engraved scrolling foliate decoration around the rim and base, echoing classic Victorian English hollowware. The interiors retain their original gilt wash, providing both warmth and protection against salt corrosion.
An engraved monogram “N” adorns the exterior of each bowl, adding a touch of personal history while remaining visually graceful.

Design Notes
During the Victorian and Edwardian periods, American silversmiths frequently produced pieces in the English tradition, sometimes stamping them “English Sterling” to reflect style rather than place of manufacture. These cellars are a fine example of that refined transatlantic aesthetic.
The pedestal form gives them presence on the table, while the engraved borders provide depth and movement without excess ornamentation.
