This antique sterling silver mustard pot features a classical cylindrical form with a hinged domed lid and an ornate thumbpiece. The pot is fitted with its original cobalt blue glass liner and includes a matching sterling silver spoon. Both the pot and spoon are fully hallmarked for Birmingham, 1935, and made by the renowned silversmith W. Neale Ltd. The base is engraved “BARRATT IPSWICH,” likely the original retailer. An elegant example of pre-war British silver tableware.
