A large solid silver canteen of cutlery is one of the star lots in the Charterhouse three day auction on the 27th & 28th November and the 1st December.

“It is an extensive table service of Kings pattern cutlery just over 60 years old.” Commented Richard Bromell. “I’m sure it would make the perfect addition for when a family gets together over Christmas and will even go through the dishwasher!”

The silver table service, predominantly made in Sheffield in 1965, comprises 113 pieces with a selection of forks, spoons and even a pair of sugar tongs.

It had been inherited by the owners a few years ago but they have decided now is the time to let another family enjoy the canteen and entered it into the Charterhouse auction of silver jewellery, wine and Christmas gifts in their Sherborne salerooms where it is estimated to sell for £4,000-6,000 on Monday 1st December.

Charterhouse is now accepting further entries for their busy programme of specialist New Year auctions starting with pictures, prints & books along with Decorative Arts & Design.

Richard Bromell and the Team at Charterhouse, The Long Street Salerooms, Sherborne are available for valuations on 01935 812277 or via rb@charterhouse-auction.com
