This set of three silver casters, crafted by renowned silversmith Paul de Lamerie between 1741 and 1742, is an exquisite example of Rococo design. The intricate ornamentation, including floral motifs, scrolling foliage, and grotesque masks, showcases the opulence and artistry of the era. These casters, which would have been used for serving condiments, are now on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
