FELIX LYNN rare Colonial Australian silver taper stick and snuff engraved with the GREENWAY crest, Sydney origin, circa 1830. This seems to be one of only a handful of surviving pieces by Lynn that is not flatware. The crest, a griffin's head appears to be that of FRANCIS GREENWAY (1777-1837) the famous convict architect.
