ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Elkington & Co., known for its pioneering electroplating process, held Royal Warrants from Queen Victoria to King George VI. Morel-Ladeuil's collaboration with Elkington spanned 23 years, resulting in remarkable works such as this pair. One inscribed: "Presented to Miss Walker on her marriage by the employes of Peter Walker Esq. Liverpool."
Similar examples can be found in the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and the works of other notable figures such as H.R.H. Prince Leopold and Bonamy Price. This set is also referenced in "The Museum and the Factory" by Alistair Grant and Angus Patterson on pages 84-87.
