Sauceboat 1753 - 1754

Robert Lowe's "Sauceboat" (1753-1754) is a fine example of 18th-century English silversmithing. The elegant, three-legged form of the sauceboat, with its intricate scrollwork handle and delicate shell-shaped feet, reflects the Rococo style. This piece, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to Lowe's craftsmanship and the sophistication of the period.
