An exquisite pewter tea set by Tudric of England, made for Liberty & Company. This 3 piece set features a teapot, creamer and sugar done in polished high gloss pewter. This design is attributed to Archibald Knox, and is number 01075. The teapot has a reeded handle, a wood finial, and measures approximately 5" high (to the top of the finial) - with a great bulbous body. This is almost 9" from the tip of the spout to the handle edge. The matching creamer and sugar have wide, thick handles and the same foot design.
The pewter has a wonderful patina, and shows normal wear marks for its age. There is a small indentation in the creamer, which is hard to detect (I've tried to show this in a close-up photo). All pieces are marked. Made around 1920, perhaps a bit earlier. A fabulous set in very nice condition! (#T-1601)
Key Words: Art Nouveau, Liberty of London, Jugendstil, Secessionist
