Victorian Walker & Hall Silver Sample Pendant
Victorian Walker & Hall Silver Sample Pendant
$200.00
Description
DATE: Victorian, c. 1880
An unusual Victorian pendant (probably originally designed as a pocket watch fob) that declares itself as a "SAMPLE OF H- HALL SILVER", which I presume is a reference to Henry Hall, one of the partners, and features an engraved picture of a stately home/hall. It's in a circular shape, with four cut-out sections forming a cross. The reverse states: FOR BEST AND CHEAPEST, WALKER & HALL SILVERSMITHS SHEFFIELD, with a W&H flag logo at the centre. Certainly very strange, I have no real idea why it would have been made, or whom it would have been sent to.
