This service is remarkable as it contains nine pieces; the muffin dishes and the tea caddy are unusual additions. The only other large service known from this period was also by Paul Storr and was made for Earl Howe, it numbered thirteen original pieces and three later additions.\r\n\r\nSir Arthur Gilbert and his wife Rosalinde formed one of the world's great decorative art collections, including silver, mosaics, enamelled portrait miniatures and gold boxes.  Arthur Gilbert donated his extraordinary collection to Britain in 1996.\r\nOn long-term loan to Los Angeles County Museum from 2010.","physicalDescription":"The coffee jug is on a circular stand with a triangular base, which has incurved sides and rests on three diminutive feet.  The gadrooned, circular ring support for the jug is on three paw-and-scroll feet and has three pendant rings attached.  The lower part of the jug and the handle are similar to those of the teapot.  The jug has a tall, waisted neck with an applied band of ovolo ornament; the broad spout is chased with a palmette, and the domed cover terminates in a bud finial.  The lamp beneath the jug is of shallow, circular form and is chased with a band of gadroons.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Storr, Paul","id":"A8891"},"association":{"text":"maker","id":"AAT251917"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"silver","id":"AAT11029"}],"techniques":[{"text":"chasing","id":"AAT54016"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Silver and ivory","categories":[{"text":"Drinking","id":"THES48965"},{"text":"Metalwork","id":"THES48920"},{"text":"Tea, Coffee & Chocolate wares","id":"THES48886"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"MET","id":"THES48599"},"images":["2010EJ5037","2010EJ5042","2010EJ5047","2010EJ5043","2010EJ5041","2010EJ5040","2010EJ5039","2009CR4233","2009CR4230","2009CR4218","2009CR4217","2009CR4216","2009CR4215","2009CR4214"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"012","id":"THES409748"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""},{"current":{"text":"BP","id":"THES49690"},"free":"","case":"CB19","shelf":"3","box":""},{"current":{"text":"BP","id":"THES49690"},"free":"","case":"CB19","shelf":"3","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"jug","id":""}],[{"text":"stand and burner","id":""}],[{"text":"lid","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""},{"apprise":"","note":""},{"apprise":"","note":""},{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"London","id":"x28980"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"1809-1810","earliest":"1809-05-29","latest":"1810-05-28"},"association":{"text":"marked","id":"x32454"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.813:1-2008","id":"O157906"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.813:2-2008","id":"O157906"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.814-2008","id":"O156637"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.815-2008","id":"O156638"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.816:1-2008","id":"O157907"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.817:1-2008","id":"O157908"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.817:2-2008","id":"O157908"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.818:1-2008","id":"O157909"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.818:2-2008","id":"O157909"},"association":""},{"object":{"text":"LOAN:GILBERT.819-2008","id":"O156639"},"association":""}],"creditLine":"The Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Collection on loan to the Victoria and Albert Museum, London","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"30.2","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"both parts together","note":""},{"dimension":"Weight","value":"1881","unit":"g","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"18.4","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"both parts together","note":""},{"dimension":"Height","value":"22.3","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"jug","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"17.4","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"stand","note":""},{"dimension":"Height","value":"11.2","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"stand","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"Measured 03/01/24 IW ","marksAndInscriptions":[{"content":"London hallmarks for 1809-10","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":""},{"content":"Mark of Paul Storr","inscriber":{"name":{"text":"","id":""},"association":{"text":"","id":""}},"date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"description":"","interpretation":"","language":"","medium":"","method":"","position":"","script":"","translation":"","transliteration":"","type":"","note":""}],"objectHistory":"Provenance: Miss S.L.Somerville, sale, Sotheby's, October 19, 1961, lot 103.
