A stunning set of Mid Century pewter "mini Tankard cups" jiggers (1 oz, 2 oz, and 4 oz) by Gaskell & Chambers Ltd. Extremely heavy in weight, these mini jiggers are downright magical. They mimic a mini "cup" or "Tankard mug" right down to the handles on the sides. Their sized step up in ounce capacity: 1 oz, 2 oz, and 4 oz. Truly a cool and unique figural set; these jiggers have a magical feel to them.
A bit about this manufacturer: founded in 1797, Gaskell & Chambers was a metalsmithing firm and equipment and furniture manufacturer based out of Dalex Works, Coleshill Street, Birmingham, England. They were most known for their bar-fitting pieces and made a number of pewter pieces. See last picture for their advertisement.
Maker/era: Gaskell & Chambers Ltd.
Hallmarks: "Gaskell & Chambers Ltd" and "Birmingham Made in England" can be found on the bottom of each jigger and each jigger has 3 small hallmarks on the interior/bottoms (see photo).
Condition: Excellent condition. They appear to have never been used. The pewter is extremely vibrant. Truly a magical set.
Cheers!
