The gift of Old Sheffield Plate which the Cutlers' Company is making to the Duke of Norfolk [Bernard Fitzalan-Howard, 16th Duke of Norfolk] on the occasion of his wedding [to Hon. Lavinia Mary Strutt] consists of a rose water dish, twenty four inches in diameter, round, chased with silver Acanthus, mounted on three siver Acanthus feet. Made by T. and J. Creswick in Sheffield in 1812. It may be added that rose water dishes in Old Sheffield Plate are extremely rare. To this is added a pair of wine coolers, round shaped, decorated with scrolls and shells and unusual examples, marked and made by Smith, Tate, Nicholson and Hoult in Sheffield in 1820. The Cutlers' Company is to be congratulated on its very beautiful and appropriate choice.
