This is a stylish Mid-Century Sterling Silver Napkin Ring. The ring is D-shaped with Art Deco style engine turned decoration & a rectangular blank cartouche. The napkin ring is made in Birmingham by silversmiths Broadway & Co & dates to 1953. Founded by William Broadway in 1901, the firm is still in the family today & operating from premises in Birmingham's famous Jewellery Quarter. Condition is very good, with no dings or dents & just the superficial surface wear that you would expect after around 70 years of use. Please make sure to view all the photographs. The napkin ring is 4.6cm / 1.8ins across, 3.9cm / 1.5ins high & 1.5cm / 0.59ins deep. It weighs in at 9.6g / 0.34oz of solid Sterling Silver. The hallmarks, on the side of the body, are well struck & clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the anchor assay mark for Birmingham, the date letter D for 1953 & the B & Co makers' mark for Broadway & Co.
