If you read the recent ‘Get their look’ feature, you’d have seen a kitchen containing a splendid collection of antique copper jelly moulds.
They’re wonderful items – something I’d love to collect myself – but they don’t tend to come cheap. The larger and more elaborate the shape, the more expensive they will be. Many of the most sought after examples are produced by London-based Benham & Froud who traded under that name from 1855 to 1906.
In 2017, there was a Wibbly Wobbly auction where over 250 jelly and cake moulds from a single collection went under the hammer. Havee a look at the huge variation in design… and price realised! ‘The Brunswick’, as shown in #3, sold for £260.
