George IV Sterling Silver Hot Water Urn, S.C. Younge & Co., Sheffield 1824
George IV Sterling Silver Hot Water Urn, S.C. Younge & Co., Sheffield 1824
A George IV sterling silver hot water urn by S.C. Younge & Co., richly chased with floral decoration and bearing arms of the Keith family.
This elegant George IV sterling silver hot water urn, crafted in Sheffield in 1824 by S.C. Younge & Co., represents refined Regency-period silverwork with both decorative and functional appeal.
The urn is formed in a classical inverted pear shape, its surface finely chased with floral motifs and scrolling foliage, demonstrating skilled handwork typical of early 19th-century English silversmithing. It is fitted with foliate reeded handles that complement the body’s ornamentation, while the domed cover is surmounted by a blossom finial, enhancing the overall symmetry and visual balance.
The piece retains its interior liner, underscoring its original use for serving hot water or beverages at the table. It stands on a square base with a gadrooned border, raised on stylized paw feet, giving the urn a strong architectural presence.
Engraved armorials relate to the Keith family, likely associated with Anthony Keith-Falconer, 7th Earl of Kintore (1794–1884), adding historical and aristocratic significance to the piece.
This urn exemplifies the transition from Georgian to Regency taste, blending classical form with rich surface decoration, and remains a highly collectible example of early 19th-century English silver.
