1945 STERLING SILVER
4 SLICE TOAST RACK
Heavy gauge sterling silver
toast rack with full British
hallmarks for:
Sheffield 1945
Makers stamp:
ES
No name recorded for these
initials but work seen with this
stamp dating to between
1931 and 1946.
It never ceases to amaze me
that items like this in sterling silver
were made virtually at the end
of the war when everyone was
on rations and probably didn’t
have bread to toast!
Also the period between 1931 and
1946 would have had to be the
toughest period of the 20th century
to make and sell luxury goods –
I feel sorry for ES.
Anyway he/she made very good
quality toast racks and this one
has survived in very good condition
CONDITION
In very good vintage condition
with few signs of age and use.
Hallmarks are crisp.
General age related surface marks
as would be expected from old item.
The four feet
are splayed (by design)
but one is a bit straighter than the others
hence there is the TINIEST bit of wobble
when it’s standing
on a flat surface but
of no real
consequence and only
mentioning for accuracy of description.
DIMENSIONS
It
measures approximately:
9cm (3 ½
") high
7.6 cm
(3") long
5cm (2")
wide
It
weighs: 62.4 grams
