Description
Set of Four George II Sterling Silver Salt Cellars

hallmarked London, 1754-1755, by David Hennell I (1712-1785; free 1735), circular cauldron form, with wavy gadrooned rim and raised on three shell-crested scroll-and-stepped-pad feet.
h. 4-3/4", dia. 2-7/8"; 13.33 total t. oz.

Literature: Percy Hennell, Hennell Silver Salt Cellars, 1736 to 1876 (East Grubstead, Sussex: BLA Publishing & the author, 1986).
Arthur G. Grimwade, London Goldsmiths, 1697-1837: Their Marks and Lives, Third Edition (London: Faber & Faber, 1990), pp. 543 & 753.
Condition
**In good used condition; minor dings, scuffs and wear commensurate with age. One shell has a very small 1/16" crack where it meets the body. Some cellars show traces of gilding on the interior. Marks rubbed - particularly the leopard's heads and two of the maker's marks - but mostly legible.
