Victorian Silver Plate Pitcher and Goblet Webster & Son - Late 19th Century

Description

Shiny, patterned heavy metal silver plate pitcher with its matching goblet. The pitcher and goblet have an unusual metal shape with hand etching. What an elegant pair!
The globular body of the pitcher has a pretty, molded swirled pattern with etched floral decorations along the sides. Bead bands, floral decorations and a button knob at the top ornament the securely attached handle. The handle has a nice steady feel.   The neck is a short cylinder with lovely etched floral decorations. At the base of the pitcher is a raised foot ring.
The goblet has swirled molded areas that match the pitcher. The goblet has three etched floral areas.  The bowl of the goblet rests on a short stem to a round base. The pieces shine well and still have most of their silver.
There is a base hallmark on both pieces. E. G. WEBSTER & SON  N.Y.  QUADRUPLE PLATE HARD WHIE METAL. The mark is in a circle around a muscled arm with a hammer and the number 105
