Summary

Description
English: These two pieces of hallmarked English silver show assay "scrapes," where a small amount of silver was removed from the underside of the item in order to perform a fire assay. The 10 3/4" salver (Richard Rugg, 1759) shows a large scrape. The salt cellar (Robert & Samuel Hennell, 1803) has a much smaller scrape - however the cellar was from a set of at least four, allowing for scrapes to be combined.
