Special notice
No VAT will be charged on the hammer price, but VAT at 15% will be added to the buyer's premium which is invoiced on a VAT inclusive basis.
Further details
The arms are for Lady Mary Abdy, née Gordon of Moore Place, Herts.
She married Captain Sir William Abdy, R.N., 6th.Bt., in 1777 & died in 1829. As her husband died in 1803, the silver was engraved after his death, thus accounting for the unusual commemoration of Sir William's baronetcy on a widow's lozenge.
