About the Item

A truly elegant example of an eighteenth century English silver tea caddy in beautiful condition given it's over 250 years old. Fitted with a pull off lid with an acorn shaped finial, the caddy is a good size and a good weight, weighing 7.33 Troy Ounces / 228 Grams. The caddy is fully hallmarked for London 1769 together with the makers mark for the top-notch silversmith, Emick Romer. The caddy remains in excellent condition measuring 7.28" tall with a diameter measuring 3.15" Emick Romer, son of Michel Michelsen Romer, goldsmith of Oslo (1682 - 1739) born 2 August, 1724. Seems to have settled in a London in the early 1750s. First mark entered in the missing register around 1758 and was working at 123, High Holborn. He was a noted supplier to Parker and Wakelin (one of the major suppliers to the King and the nobility) of pierced baskets, epergnes and tea caddies. Candlesticks were also a speciality and most of them have finely pierced decoration to the capitals. Seems to have returned to Norway by May 1795, where he settled in Halden, in the south of the country. A maker of fine and unusual pieces.
