Early English Silver
Early antique English silver looks distinctly different from the German silver, first of all in terms of color. Antique English silver, of the time, demonstrates a sobriety of forms and a well organised hallmark system (there are mostly four marks on English silver). Under this category, you can find antique English silver of a very high quality, dating from the seventeenth and eighteenth century.
