Small
round pewter jug with ornate handle and hammered finish. Quality is a
touch above the average, the plate being quite thick. It has touch marks
for Fenton Brothers of Sheffield, who traded from 1859 until 1919 and
despite its age it's in very good condition. There are one or two
small scratches and there is a barely noticeable small dent, more a
flattening, to one side that I am sure could be removed with care (I
have straightened edges and smoothed dents carefully and gently with a
hot water bath and wooden forms before). Apart from that there's still a
nice sheen to it - the white marks around the handle are from some
kind of residue and it does remove with care (see before and after photos). Use a fingernail rather
than a hard edge to remove the rest. Overall in very good condition.
