About

Mary Cooke Antiques

Mary Cooke Antiques, located in Mortlake, southwest London, have been trading in 18th-century silver for nearly 50 years.

The majority of their stock is British, including Irish and Scottish, and they hold one of the United Kingdom’s largest stocks of Hester Bateman silver, caddy spoons and wine labels.

Stock

Among Mary Cooke’s stock can also be found a wide selection of fine silver boxes, made for a variety of uses, ranging from nutmeg graters, to vinaigrettes and snuff boxes, together with charming examples of bodkin cases and patch boxes.

Their stock also includes a large selection of flatware, pieces which serve both as functional utensils and finely crafted works of art.

Company history

Mary Cooke set up her business in 1967 and was elected to BADA membership in 1978.
