Description
A pair of 20th-century brass tankards produced in the 18th-century George II style. Each vessel is designed with a classic tulip-shaped body resting upon a splayed circular foot. The tankards are fitted with cast, scrolled handles. One vessel features a faint, hand-engraved folk-art style motif depicting a bird amongst floral sprigs, while the other vessel is plain. The construction comprises cast components for the handles and bases with a spun or cast body. No maker marks, symbols, or characters are visible on the exterior or interior of either item.
Condition report:
Both items exhibit general surface wear commensurate with age, including light scratches and minor pitting. There are visible areas of oxidation and dark tarnish, particularly concentrated around the handle joins and to the interior of the vessels. The engraved decoration on one tankard is worn and faint.
