The canteen of silver cutlery made by Walker & Hall, one of the most popular silversmiths of the 20th century, was inherited from a close family member.

The owners, who are planning a house move in a couple of months, were having a sort out of items they had inherited over the years and asked Charterhouse to visit their home to give them some help and advice.

Estimated at £2,500, the silver canteen is entered into the Charterhouse Summer three day auction, with silver on Wednesday 30th July, jewellery & watches on Thursday 31st July and then antiques and interiors on Friday 1st August.

Charterhouse are now accepting further entries for this three day auction of watches, jewellery, silver and antiques.
