The Dishes are of an outstanding weight and are all modelled in an identical design. The difference in dates and makers is simply were the family extended the set in 1822. All dishes are of shaped oval form and display a very unusual cast rim decorated with scrolls interspersed with raised roses. This design is possibly unique. All dishes are engraved with the same double Crest and all pieces are well marked. As intimated, they are of an outstanding weight and are in excellent condition.
