In 1818 he was succeed by his threeeldest sons, Robert Garrard Jr, James Garrard and Sebastian Garrardtrading as R, J & S. Garrard.The firm became R. & S. Garrard in 1835, R. & S. Garrard &Co in 1843 and Garrard & Co Ltd in 1909.The dimensions of the napkin ring are approximately 5 inchesor 13 cms high.
