Oval dish 1782 - 1783

This oval dish, crafted by French silversmith Antoine Théry between 1782 and 1783, is a prime example of the refined taste of the late 18th century. Its simple, elegant form, characterized by a gently undulating rim, showcases the artistry of Théry's craftsmanship. The dish, currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to the enduring appeal of functional objects as works of art.
