A WILLIAM IV SILVER-GILT SALVER WITH HARDSTONE, SILVER AND GOLD SEALS
MARK OF PAUL STORR, LONDON, 1834
Octafoil, the broad rim set with six hardstone, two silver and one gold seal, chased between with foliate scrolls and alternating coats-of-arms, marked on reverse
13 ¼ in (33.5 cm.) wide
gross weight 35 oz. 9 dwt.
The arms in the border are those of Leveson and Gower.
The arms on the central seal are those of Leveson impaling Granville and on the obverse Leveson quartering Gower, Gower of Stanesby and another, all impaling Granville, for William Leveson-Gower, later 4th Bt. (d.1691) and his wife Lady Mary Granville (1653-1696), daughter of John, 1st Earl of Bath (1628-1701), whom he married in 1668.
William was born with the family name Gower, but changed it to Leveson-Gower on succeeding to the estates of his great uncle Sir Richard Leveson Kt. (1598–1661), of Trentham. The quarterings and the absence of the baronet's badge dates the seals to between 1661, and 1689, when William became the 4th baronet on the death of his elder brother's son, Sir Thomas Gower 3rd Bt.
The further seals in clockwise order from one o'clock:
1) Gower quartering Leveson within the Garter motto and beneath a duke's coronet for a Duke of Sutherland, on carnelian matrix.
2) Gower quartering Leveson beneath an earl's coronet with Sutherland in pretence beneath a countess' coronet, for George Granville Leveson-Gower, as Earl Gower, later created 1st Duke of Sutherland (1758-1833) and his wife Elizabeth (1765-1839), Countess of Sutherland in her own right, daughter and heir of William, 18th Earl of Sutherland (1735-1766), whom he married in 1785, on silver-gilt matrix,
3) Gower quartering Leveson impaling Egerton with viscount's coronet above, for Granville Leveson-Gower as Viscount Trentham of Trentham, later 2nd Earl Gower and 1st Marquess of Stafford (1721-1803) and his second wife Lady Louisa Egerton (1723-1761), daughter and eventual co-heir of Scroop Egerton, 1st Duke of Bridgewater (1681-1744), on carnelian matrix.
