A huge, and very good quality, English copper preserve pan. To the base this is stamped with the orb and cross symbol used by Benhams and there is also a workman’s mark. The brass handles, which are the typical English form, are stamped with a number ’18’ which relates to the internal diameter of the pan in inches, and beside one of these handles are the engraved initials “S.E.H”. These would be the initials of a previous owner. The pan is very well made, from a very heavy gauge of copper and it has a lovely castellated seam running around just above the base and up one side. It dates from c.1860 and is in excellent condition with just a few very small marks to the copper on the interior.

Dimensions: Diameter of pan 48.5cm. Depth of pan 17cm. Overall width including the handles 59.5cm. Overall height including the handles 23cm
