Description
Pair of George II Sterling Silver Trencher Salts

hallmarked London, 1735-1736, by Edward Wood (ca. 1701-1751; free 1722), of traditional canted rectangular form with concave sides.
h. 1-1/8", l. 2-7/8", w. 2-1/4"; 20.20 total t. oz.

Literature: Arthur G. Grimwade, London Goldsmiths, 1697-1837: Their Marks and Lives, Third Edition (London: Faber & Faber, 1990), p. 709.
Condition
**In fair condition with moderate wear throughout. Small holes on three upper corners of each salt where the silver has thinned away at the join. One of these holes has two short 1/4" creases, apparently a flaw in the original construction. One cellar has a tiny 1/8" crack on the basal edge of one short side. Some rubbing to the hallmarks, but they are all legible.
