This early 20th century tea set consists of 5 pieces of hand hammered pewter (a 4 piece tea set and tray). Although its style could be described as Arts and Crafts, it also has aspects of Art Nouveau in the extensions of the lines of the feet.
Stamped on the base of each piece is a symbol of a lady in a bonnet, "My Lady”over "English”over“Hand Hammered” over “Pewter” which denotes the maker as George Lee & Co. of Sheffield, who used the "My Lady" trade mark some time during the 1920s.
The tea set sits on an old Art Nouveau Kayserzinn pewter tray which dates circa 1900-1910.
It is an outstanding classic and original piece of Art Nouveau pewter. It measures about 15 by 22 inches.
While we recognize that the tea set and tray may not have begun life together; they are together now and we hate to breakup a good marriage.
The tea set is in outstanding condition with no dents or dings.
The tray is also in very good condition with a few light scratches as should be expected, given its age and the relative softness of its material. Overall, however, its appearance is quite pleasing.
