Victorian Sterling Muffineer
Victorian era, ca. 1888 CE. A handsome sterling silver muffineer with a tall cylindrical body, richly chased in high-relief scrolling foliate motifs over a dense stippled ground, and topped by a pierced, domed screw cap for neat, controlled sprinkling of sugar or other seasonings.

Both the lid and the base share 5 hallmarks: lion passant silver standard mark; uncrowned leopard head for the London city mark; E. F over H.T. into a shield, for the maker Horace Woodward & Co Edgar Finley & Hugh Taylor; date letter N for the year 1888; Queen Victoria head in profile duty mark. 2 1/2"W x 6 1/4"H, 151.8 grams
