Deerfield Lane

Own a remarkable piece of Sheffield’s industrial heritage with this antique silver-plated condiment set by Allen & Darwin. Featuring the early "ALENS" hallmark, this late Victorian or Edwardian treasure is masterfully designed in a rustic barrel form with horizontal banding and a ball-finial lid. The set includes its original tiered underplate, providing a grand presentation for jams, honey, or butter. The lid is expertly notched to accommodate a small serving spoon, making this a functional centerpiece that captures the timeless elegance of the English breakfast table. This is a rare find for collectors of early British electroplate, showcasing the fine craftsmanship that established Sheffield as the world leader in silverplating. Condition Statement This set is in good antique condition, showing a deep, rich tarnish that highlights the fine details of the barrel's "wooden" bands. The silver plating exhibits minor surface wear and a "warm" patina consistent with its age of over 100 years. There are no major dents or repairs, and both the jar and the underplate remain structurally sound. The lid fits snugly, and the interior shows signs of light use that confirm its history as a functional piece of Victorian serveware.
