Robert and William Sorley were a renowned Glasgow jewellery and silversmith's firm. Established in 1840, the company made fine jewellery, silver and watches for many of the city's nobility, aristocracy and leading residents, as well as producing items for private and civic commissions. The firm made multiple items presented to her Majesty the Queen during official visits to the city. R&W Sorley was one of the largest and most influential high-class jewellery establishments and the quality of their work is shown in the lots 28 and 29.
