Description: | This pair of presentation plates was made to accompany a presentation bowl featuring the same border design and engraving. 'R & S' (Reid and Sons Ltd) is stamped on the base of each of these plates. Although Reid and Sons are local to Newcastle, this silver was not made locally but was probably made by London silversmiths Barnard and Sons. Silver-smithing declined in Newcastle in the 19th-century due to the increase in and ease of transport to and from London. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | work metalwork living in the North East art designers makers men date period | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
