This is an extremely large Antique Sterling Silver Warwick Vase made in the style of George III.
This Warwick vase is dated 1818, made by Solomon Royes & John, East Dix in London, England. Features exceptional detail, and may be one of the earliest and largest examples in sterling silver. The original Warwick Vase, from which this vase was cast in 1818, was found in pieces in Rome at Hadrian's Villa.
The original Warwick vase was an ancient Roman marble vase with Bacchic ornament. This vase has two large handles formed of interwoven vine branches, spreading around the upper margin of this vase as tendrils, leaves, and clustering grapes. The heads around the Warwick vase represent satyrs. Below the satyr heads at the middle of the body of the vase is the head and body of a panther. One of the satyr heads is said to be a representation of Lady Hamilton with a fawn's ear.
This beautiful sterling silver Warwick vase stands on a square pedestal foot.
This sterling silver Warwick vase weighs 425 troy ounces, or 13,220 grams of pure sterling silver. This is well over 29 pounds.
This sterling silver Warwick vase measures 15 1/4" high, 22"
wide, and 15 1/2" deep.
This Sterling Silver Warwick vase is made of investment quality sterling silver. Sterling silver is a great investment. It is not gold or silver bullion, and it has a decorative and antique quality. Thus it would not be confiscated were gold bullion confiscation to occur as it did during the Great Depression.
