Charles Reily & George Storer were silversmiths operating in London during the first half of the 19th Century during the reigns of William IV and Victoria. Charles Reily entered his first mark on 31st May 1826 in London. It appears he went into partnership with George Storer in 1829 as they registered another mark as silverplate workers. It appears they started to specialize in smaller pieces as their later marks are found mainly on high quality snuff boxes and other smaller items.
