Name brooches of this type were a popular Victorian gift — personal, affordable, and beautifully made — and the Chester assay office was known for the quality of its small silver wares. This example is particularly well-preserved, the lettering sharp and the engraving clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eAt 44mm the brooch has good presence and wears well on a lapel or collar. Condition is excellent throughout. A sweet and collectible piece of Victorian sentimental silver with obvious appeal to anyone named Mary — or anyone drawn to the period.\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, 1897\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: Victorian, 1897\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDesign: Raised \"MARY\" lettering, shaped cartouche, engraved foliate sprays, hatched border, ball terminals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDimensions: 44mm x 14mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWeight: 3g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCondition: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sterling Silver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64944024977757,"sku":"SAO369","price":110.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0887\/0471\/3053\/files\/20-01-26-2909copy.jpg?v=1781694997","url":"https:\/\/www.spectrumantiques.com\/products\/antique-silver-mary-name-brooch-chester-1897","provider":"Spectrum Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
