The bud vases each engraved with a crest above the motto "Nunquam Non Paratus," weighted bases (some denting to each) (10 1/8 in.); the ewer is likely English, with armorial engraving to body and hinged cover with a finial in the form of a lion rampant with shield (some staining and loss to original insulators).
