Tufts LION Silver Plate WATER PITCHER STAND AND CUP - Incredible Design

  

As you will see from the images here, the design on this set is stunning and high end for the time period. Set is complete and each piece carries matching marks and production numbers. The stand is 12 inches long and tops out at 9 inches tall with the pitcher on it.

The detailing on the design and decoration is heavy and deep. Given the few plain or unadorned pitchers and occasional mug I have come across -- this was either custom or at the top end of what Tufts produced in this line.

And surface wear is consistent with the age of the piece--I see no dents or damage. Plating is heavy and strong.
