Item Description

A four piece sterling silver coffee service by William Bateman and William Bateman and Daniel Ball, London 1839-40; comprising a coffee pot and burner, a cream jug and a sugar basin. Coffee pot, burner and cream jug engraved with the personal cypher of Queen Victoria within the motto of the Order of the Garter and surmounted by a crown.

The coffee pot later inscribed on the foot detailing the service's presentation by Queen Victoria to Julia Davys on her marriage.

Overall height of coffee pot on burner: 30cm; height of cream jug: 16cm; height of sugar basin: 8cm.

All contained in the original fitted wooden case by the royal goldsmiths Rundell, Bridge & Company. William Bateman and Daniel Ball were suppliers to Rundell, Bridge & Co.

This silver coffee service was made for Queen Victoria in the first year of her reign. A similar silver tea service by the same makers engraved with the royal cypher is in the Royal Collection [see Royal Collections Trust, RCIN 47102].

Queen Victoria gifted the service to Margaret Julia Davys, daughter of the queen's former tutor Rev. George Davys, on her marriage in November 1839.
