Item specifics
Composition: Sterling SilverMaker: Fergenbaum & Son
Type: Cups & GobletsAge: 1900-1940
FINE ENGLISH STERLING SILVER WATER GOBLET; CLASSIC FORM; FERGENBAUM & SON, BIRMINGHAM, 1921

This is a fine English early century sterling silver water goblet.

From the well very rarely observed Birmingham firm of Fergenbaum & Son. Listed for only five years in 1920 to 1925. As a result, examples bearing their mark are almost never encountered by collectors.

This fine goblet in classic form.

Tall slender bowl tapering to base.

Elegant leaf and floral framed oval medallion.

Unique, twitsed rope centre saucer form knop. Set at lower stem.

Stepped edge circular foot.

This fine English early century sterling silver water goblet is 5 1/2 inches tall and 2 5/8 inches at widest. Thick heavy guage sterling construction, it weighs 3 1/4 ounces.

Hallmarked as shown.

In very good condition. Rich, lustreous sterling patina. Stands firm on table or tray. Removal evident in oval medallion, see images. Please examine several of our other English goblets listed as well.

For the discerning collector of fine English sterling. A fine English early century water goblet.

Please feel free to inquire directly about this, or any item we've listed. Whether the item is alone or part of a set. We very much welcome your interest. We are collectors first. As such, we are quite easy to work with.

We happily combine items when shipping, saving you costs. We ship twice weekly, usually US Postal Priority. Fully insured for domestic packages, and air parcel overseas. We charge a bit more than actual cost for custom size boxes, shipping materials and to pay for professional packing.

We make great effort to accurately describe each item listed. Returns are accepted, if either condition, country of origin or dating is significantly incorrect. In such cases we refund your shipping costs as well. Like you, we are only human, and make mistakes. Hopefully, not too many.

Remember, the items you see are antiques. Hence, have an expected amount of wear from normal use. As such, returning an item because we failed to mention the tiniest bit of wear, or barely discernible flaw is not acceptable. Nor do we accept returns based on buyer's remorse. Nor change of taste, or because a buyer did not realize how "small" four inches might be once in hand.

Please note, Massachusetts residents are subject to sales tax.

We have over 5045 feedbacks. And, are quite proud of our 99.% plus rating.

We received favorable notice in the March 12th, 2006 New York Times. Page 8, Business Section, in a well written article on silver collecting. Copy furnished upon request.

From our personal collection, an elegant mid 19th century coin silver basket, from John and Edward Moore, of Tiffany fame. Illustrated in the cover article of May/June 2008 Silver Magazine, page 27.

Enjoy....and good fortune in your bidding.

Questions and answers about this item
 Q: The removal is, as you said, evident, however, whether the thickness of the silver would allow cleanup and the addition of more engraving, is not. Also, my poor eyes cannot detect if the removal has left a slight indention.... Continue reading
A: HI TSM No thinning nor rippling of surface. Could tolerate a much better clean up of the removal if you desired. Robert
