Contains 550 ml.
Weight 347g, 11.1 troy oz.
Height 19cm Diameter of top 10.6cm.
London 1653.
Maker Daniel Rutty.
Sterling silver.

Marks. Fully marked in a straight line just below the rim with a full set of English silver hallmarks and has the lion passant on the underside of the foot. The maker’s mark is not fully struck but we have attributed the maker to Daniel Rutty from the letter “D” which is fully visible and the shape of the shield – this is the only candidate (reference Dr David Mitchell in “Silversmiths in Elizabethan and Stuart London”).

This substantial antique silver cup is in good condition with moderate signs of wear commensurate with age. The chalice has been tested for water retention and does not leak. The rim shows a few minor wear marks and a couple of small repairs. The foot has a bit of unevenness to the top surface.

Maker: Daniel Rutty

Daniel Rutty, London silversmith, working during the mid 1600’s.
