The lion passant would usually be struck with the other marks and also on the cover, possibly with the maker's mark. However, James Lomax notes in 'Country House Silver at Dunham Massey' that a similar pair of tea caddies, made for George Booth, 2nd Earl of Warrington, are marked on the bases alone. reference term-121036 adlib-term-121036 d94c6987-b658-37d7-a4c1-f5da804d2e40 18th Century, second quarter reference term-107736 adlib-term-107736 e93a8dd1-d76d-320b-be9b-afa352e322a1 George II reference term-106216 adlib-term-106216 825b8379-ec94-388e-9a59-624e40c090d0 literal England England country London reference term-39778 adlib-term-39778 8bd60ed6-968d-3faf-8ad5-b4e4ee9bb245 silver Weight g 440 Weight oz:dwt 14:3 reference media-5838001 portfolio portfolio-media-5838001 551c2acb-14ee-3c65-87f3-26cb8514a068 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/508/58/large_M_27_1982_1_200707_mfj22_mas_.jpg 1 height pixels 1296 width pixels 1024 1529374122000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/508/58/mid_M_27_1982_1_200707_mfj22_mas_.jpg 1 height pixels 633 width pixels 500 1529374122000 1 image M.27-1982_1_200707_mfj22_mas..jpg 1529374122000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/508/58/preview_M_27_1982_1_200707_mfj22_mas_.jpg 1 height pixels 316 width pixels 250 1529374122000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/508/58/M_27_1982_1_200707_mfj22_mas_.ptif 1 height pixels 3587 width pixels 2835 1529374122000 1 image 0 media image reference media-252781599 portfolio portfolio-media-252781599 a1fe99eb-141f-3ab1-b31a-3ced22fa5bd4 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/508/59/large_M_27_1982_2_200707_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 758 width pixels 1023 1529374122000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/508/59/mid_M_27_1982_2_200707_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 370 width pixels 500 1529374122000 1 image M.27-1982_2_200707_mfj22_mas.jpg 1529374122000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/508/59/preview_M_27_1982_2_200707_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 185 width pixels 250 1529374122000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/508/59/M_27_1982_2_200707_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 2016 width pixels 2722 1529374122000 1 image 1 media image reference term-90377 adlib-term-90377 6f8b3cf6-dc9e-3ca4-b10f-bedbc8dfe47b tea caddy tea cannister history note The coat-of-arms of Stonhouse for either Sir John Stonhouse 6th Bt. (d.1740) of the senior line, or Sir John Stonhouse 3rd Bt. (d.1733) of the junior line. Sir William Stonhouse of Radley, Berkshire (son of George Stonhouse, clerk of the green cloth to Queen Elizabeth I) was created a baronet on 7 May 1628. On his death in 1631 he was succeeded by his elder son Sir John 2nd Bt (d. 1632) and then his younger son Sir George. Sir George Stonhouse 3rd Bt. (d. 1674) argued with his eldest son, and in 1670 he surrendered his patent to King Charles II and had a new one granted which excluded his eldest son from the succession. However his eldest son claimed the baronetcy and called himself the 4th baronet, while his younger brother John claimed the "new" baronetcy of 1670. So until 1740, when the senior line died out, two branches of the same family claimed to be baronets. history note Given by a member of the Messel family to Dr Greville Tait, reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum reference publication-4950 adlib-publication-4950 ed2c770c-c830-37fd-ae15-e17c49b2a00e London Goldsmiths, 1697-1837: Their marks and lives, from original registers at Goldsmiths' Hall and other sources reference publication-6095 adlib-publication-6095 0d2663ed-f1c3-3196-9cca-157199649a31 Country House Silver from Dunham Massey
