Maker Bio
Robert Hennell was part of the distinguished Hennell family of London silversmiths, active from the 18th through the 19th centuries and celebrated for their technical mastery and elegant designs. By the mid-19th century, Robert Hennell’s works reflected both the neoclassical traditions of English silver and the era’s growing taste for exotic revival styles, including chinoiserie and Rococo revival. His services remain highly collectible, prized for their craftsmanship, historic hallmarks, and decorative richness.
