Pair of novelty English antique double swan salt cellars.
Hallmarked from Sheffield in 1897 with the makers mark being that of William Neale & Son.
Stubborn dark marks to the bases on the gilt interior, areas of tarnish around heads and necks and a couple of seems are slightly opening which has caused a small hole on one head.
Nothing drastic with them and they display exceptionally well.
They stand 54mm tall and measure approx 70mm in length.
