An English sterling silver tea strainer with unusual design to handle complete with its base stand, both pieces hallmarked from Birmingham in 1960 with the makers mark being that of William Suckling Ltd.
One small corner bruise on the base otherwise no damage, the base is dull in appearance and has extensive scuffs so not as shiney as it should be.
The strainer measures 143mm in length (14.3cm) and 55mm across (5.5cm), the base measures 80mm across (8cm).
