About Paul Storr

Paul Storr (1771–1844) was an English goldsmith and silversmith whose career spanned the late Georgian and Regency periods. Recognized as one of the most celebrated English silversmiths, Storr produced work in the Neoclassical style and beyond, ranging from refined domestic tableware to grand sculptural presentation pieces commissioned by royalty and the British aristocracy. His silver is held in major museum and institutional collections and appears regularly at leading auction houses. Storr's workshop set a standard for craftsmanship and design that made his name synonymous with high-quality English silver of the period. Collectors encounter his work most often in the categories of Georgian and Regency silver, where his maker's mark is a key identifier.

Common works and media

Common works by Paul Storr include sterling silver tableware such as candelabra, epergnes, soup tureens, wine coolers, sauce boats, and tea services. He also produced large sculptural presentation pieces, race trophies, church plate, and gilt-metal objects. Silver flatware services and domestic hollowware are encountered regularly. Most pieces bear London hallmarks and Storr's distinctive maker's mark.

Market and appraisal context

Paul Storr silver appears frequently at major international auctions, with realized prices varying widely based on form, size, weight, provenance, and decorative complexity. Presentation pieces and works with documented royal or aristocratic provenance tend to achieve the highest results. Appraisal of Storr silver requires careful attention to hallmarks, maker's marks, condition, and any restoration history. Attribution should account for the fact that Storr's large workshop produced pieces under his name with the involvement of numerous craftsmen and, later, through the firm Rundell, Bridge & Rundell. Comparable auction records from Christie's, Sotheby's, and Bonhams provide useful valuation benchmarks.
