The arms are those of Lowther Augustus John, 3rd Baron Muncaster (1802-1838), who succeeded his father in 1818 and married Frances Catherine, daughter of Sir John Ramsden, 4th Bt., in 1828.
He commissioned an extensive silver dinner service from Paul Storr in 1824/1825 comprising the present lot of four sauce tureens, a soup tureen, four vegetable dishes, four entrée dishes on stands, four salt cellars, thirty-six dinner plates, twelve soup plates, six meat dishes and a candelabrum.
