Double-name brooches are considerably rarer than their single-name counterparts — made to order as personal gifts rather than produced speculatively — which gives this piece an added layer of individual history. The combination of Mary and Ellen was a popular compound name in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, and the brooch would have been a meaningful and personal gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe brooch carries full Chester hallmarks dated 1905 and is in good condition. A genuinely individual piece of Edwardian sentimental silver with strong collector appeal and obvious personal resonance for anyone with a connection to either name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"border-border-200 border-t-0.5 my-3 mx-1.5\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMetal: Silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHallmarks: Full Chester hallmarks, 1905\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOrigin: Chester, UK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eEra: Edwardian, 1905\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDesign: Shaped cartouche, raised \"MARY ELLEN\" lettering, scrolled and foliate decoration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDimensions: 45mm x 15mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWeight: 2.32g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCondition: Good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sterling Silver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64944022782301,"sku":"SAO364","price":115.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0887\/0471\/3053\/files\/Untitled-1copy_9a24fe08-3959-4bde-8246-3222c53641c3.jpg?v=1781695773","url":"https:\/\/www.spectrumantiques.com\/products\/antique-silver-mary-ellen-double-name-brooch-chester-1905","provider":"Spectrum Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
