Just a bit of fun, but how’s this for a collection of silver!!

[Foster88]

I’m just posting this for a little bit of fun and to show you all.

I visited a museum this past week and I was astonished to see this collection of silver. The skills of the silversmiths is truly stunning, guided in gold and featuring many pieces.

Can anyone guess where it is and who it belonged to?

I’ll give away no clues.... well just one, it would cost a lot to ship today. 🤔

You’re close with the nautical vibes.

I’m not sure where you’re seeing the rodent in a pharaoh outfit though. 😂

Here’s the description of the museum collection owned by Thomas Ismay of White Star Line. The infamous shipping company, by the 1912 Titanic disaster it would be his son Bruce Ismay in charge of White Star Line.

This stunning collection is on display in Liverpool Maritime Museum which is a great day out.
