Hukin & Heath, Birmingham and London

Hukin & Heath, founded in 1855, manufactured silver and electroplate. Dresser was appointed art advisor in about 1878, the date the company registered the first of his designs. They carry the mark 'Designed by Dr C Dresser'.

The firm, who supplied novelties for the luxury market, were looking for a new direction. Although the last registered date of Dresser's designs is 1881, they were still produced for some years.
