Seller: cleetus1969 ✉️ (1,250) 99.2%, Location: Horsham, GB, Ships to: GB, Item: 186345225554 Vintage Small Shaped Silver-Plated Tankard with Angular Handle- Ratcliffe & Sons. Probably designed as a child's Christening present this is a small traditionally shaped tankard with an angular handle. It is marked on its underside EPBM for Electro-Plated Britannia Metal indicating that it is silver-plated onto a base metal. It will hold 175ml of liquid or 0.37 of a pint. The body of the tankard is decorated with two figures standing either side of a central round cartouche while surrounded by foliage. This is a possibly a representation of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. It was made by Ratcliffe & Sons of Sheffield. Unfortunately there is not information relating to this maker. Based on the design and decoration on the tankard it probably dates from the early twentieth century. Condition The item has been tested and is watertight. The silver-plating on the item has worn off the body over time revealing the Britannia metal beneath. It has no noticeable indentations around its body. There are no tears to the body of the vessel. The lip of the vessel is slightly misshapen.  It is covered in numerous small scratches and scuffs but nothing serious. When it is placed on a flat surface it does not wobble or rock. The handle is solid. Please see the photographs for an accurate representation of the item's overall condition. They also form an important part of the item's description. Height approximately 80mm. Width approximately 84mm including handle. It weighs approximately 131g. The item comes from a pet free home. Please note I do not post outside of the UK.
