EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the opulent world of 18th century Britain with this exquisite pair of sauce boats crafted by renowned silversmith Paul Crespin in approximately 1746/47. The masterful design is inspired by nature, featuring large nautilus shells as vessels and adorned with tiny specimens of marine life that seem to burst forth from the pebbled surface like fossils revealed under an archaeologist's brush.
The attention to detail is breathtaking - miniature serpents slither across the handles, providing a practical resting place for the pourer's thumb. The polished sea creatures appear as if they've been plucked straight from the ocean floor and applied with precision by Crespin's skilled hands.
This stunning pair of sauce boats not only showcases exceptional craftsmanship but also speaks to the cultural heritage of Britain during this era. As part of a larger collection, these pieces would be an invaluable addition to any art museum or gallery dedicated to showcasing the finest examples of 18th century decorative arts.
