"Salver" (1732) by Augustin Courtauld is a fine example of 18th-century English silversmithing. The tray, crafted from silver, features an ornate, scalloped rim and a centrally located engraved monogram. This piece, now part of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts collection, exemplifies the elegant design and craftsmanship that characterized the Rococo period.

The exemplary quality of Augustin Courtauld's work is seen in this salver, decorated with a Baroque border of bracketed C- and S- scrolls and a rococo coat of arms.
